The Johnny Football game

I get a hard time for not loving him but yup. There are reasons he was low rated coming out of HS.

 

Fun player but nfl transition has a lot of questions. I enjoy watching him though.

I don't know why he would be low rated coming out of high school though. None of his shortcomings are shortcomings in the college game. Sure he is not prototype size, so maybe as a pure recruit he went down a few notches. But you can be great in college like that.

 

Good notes that he has size 15 shoes and the big hands. That could mean he will grow.

I get judging a guys pro potential by what you see in college, but now their high school rankings are a factor? No denying he is a hell of a college player and colleges would rather have him over almost every other top rated high school prospect.

Not only that. It would explain his ability to master the football even on plays where he exhibits unorthodox mechanics.

 

Besides their height, Manziel couldn't be more different than Drew Brees but one thing which is a great equalizer for Brees is his 10.5" hands.

 

If Manziel has big paws that's promising even if he doesn't get taller.

Let Jones air it out for the love of God.

 

No those Morons would rather run now when it's over, maybe if they tried that earlier they wouldn't be so down. Plus their run attack consist mostly of draws and fly sweeps, i'ts really one of the worst run designs I have ever seen, it's amazing that Jones has done as well as he has.

Right - discussing a red shirt freshman qb, mentioning his rivals or espn rankings coming out of HS is absurd. Please forgive. I don't follow them closely but I know a few people that are big into it and discussed him a bit more than most freshman qbs I could sound off on. Being an SEC addition he got some attention down here.

 

The kids had a hell of a season. He's got some stuff that is likely to hold him back long term in my opinion - that's all.
