This is why I supported and still support the pick of Manuel. "If I was going to make a mistake, it was going to do it with a big athletic kid with arm talent".
The reason I subscribe to this way of thinking is taking the reverse angle. Instead of hoping a kid like Wilson, Barkely, Ponder, Manziel, Glennon, Tebow, Sanchez, and many others can overcome major physical inadequacies - you should evaluate kids with the most physical ability and if the mental analysis is close to matching - draft him.
