How high do you think Johnny Manziel goes in the NFL draft?

I know there are a lot of people that hate him but honestly speaking, what are your thoughts? I don't think the fact that he is short will have much of an impact. I think his arm has gotten much stronger since last year, I think he is pretty accurate, and he is super mobile. The only thing that I question is his decision making at times but that can be fixed. I think that he can go in the top 10 for sure. Question then becomes what teams would draft him. Browns, Texans, Vikings, Jaguars, Raiders, Eagles, or who? I honestly think he would fit very well on the Texans or Eagles.

    he isnt going to go all that high. the kids attitude and demeanor is a turn-off. People have dropped entire rounds for unprofessionalism. People thought Randy Moss was unprofessional and he fell from a top 3 pick to mid first round. Also Manziel doesnt have the durability long term. Look at how banged up RG3 is in only his second year. Manziel is a slower runner, less accurate passer and doesnt have the maturity and arm strength RG3 has and RG3 because of injury might be out the league 5 years from now. Manziel doesnt have the talent of RG3 and has benefitted from having probably the best O-line in college football the past 2 years. Jockel was the 2nd pick in the draft and Matthews will be a top 5 guy this year. If he is a high pick to a team like Jacksonville or Cleveland who need a QB he will be beat down and hit consistently from lack of protection and will not have the time to spin in a circle and hold the ball for another 15 seconds. The speed of the NFL will make it where this guy will be average at best and that is if he can even stay healthy to be average

    Johnny Manziel will probably go anywhere from the middle of the 1st Round to either the Texans or Browns, there are at least 4 QBs in the 2014 NFL Draft who will go ahead of him, such as Teddy Bridgewater from Louisville, Brett Hundley from UCLA, Marcus Mariota from Oregon & Tajh Boyd from Clemson

    Actually, it depends on his performance in football this season. If Johnny Manziel continues to perform very well in football during the rest of this season, he will greatly improve his chances of becoming an elite college football quarterback for the Texas A&M Aggies, who could repeat as Heisman Trophy winner, as well as get drafted to play for an NFL team next spring.

    I don't think he SHOULD go very high, but I feel like it's going to be like the Broncos taking Tebow in the 1st Round. I feel like someone will roll the dice, and regret it in the end, just like the Broncos. Wasting a 1st Round pick on Tebow.

    He could be the first pick. Jaguars look like the worst team in the league and they need a qb

    number 1 overall. jacksonville has their eye on him no doubt. they'd have to be idiots to pass up on him. he's fantastic, i can't see him not panning out in the nfl. he's russel wilson with a more accurate arm.
