Lets say Bridgewater came in at the combine at 6'2-6'3 at 215lbs and at his pro days displayed a powerful/elite arm

 

I would say teams like the Brows and Raiders would be willing to trade up for the top qb in the draft.

 

Dave (I meant Dave)  and Snead are good friends, and Dave said it would take our 1st and a possible 3rd or 4th to move up to Rams spot.

 

That connection could come in handy

 

That connection means nothing. We know the Rams are not going to pick a quarterback at #2, so any quarterback the Texans don't pick will be available at #3.

 

You are still not a wise man.

Not using the ol noggin I see. 

 

If a team feels that there is a prospect that could be taken ahead of them, they will trade up. Thats the whole purpose of trading up to the rams...

Vino you have no idea what you talking about. He is the only legitimate 1st round qb in this class and the Raiders have been rumored to be interested in him.

 

You don't know what can happen.

I clearly know more than your made up facts. No team is trading up for Bridgewater in the top 5, he's not worth that. He has a bad deep throw, serious injury potential if he's not very well protected, and there are a ton of people who think he may measure in at 6'1''. Doesn't help that he never proved himself against high level competition and only played scrubs his entire career with the exception of 2-3 games and looked average a lot this year. Having good mechanics and ball placement on short-intermediate routes is not good enough to make you a top 5, or even top 10, pick.

His deep throws, but they certainly aren't bad. He is a lot taller than 6'1, more around 6'2-6'3, please stop bringing up this high level bs, its means nothing in the long term. You have never watched his games think that

 

You come across as someone who dislikes him more for messing with your girlfriend than his football prowess.

You mean my brain? You are the one not using yours. Why would David Caldwell want to give the Rams two picks to move up one spot to pick a quarterback? Only an idiot would do that.

What if the Raiders and Browns were moving up for the same qb...?

You clearly know nothing about Teddy Bridgewater if you have to rely on the opinions of other posters to get any information about him.

David Caldwell can pick another one of his top three guys, of course. Duh.

so who missed more games due to injury during their college careers? Bridgewater or johnny ego? What stellar competition did Big Ben face during college? If you think good mechanics and ball placement is all Teddy has going for him....you haven't done enough homework or simply don't understand all that goes into playing qb in a pro style offense. It's TB's mental makeup that will make him a monster weapon at the next level. Not 60 yard scrambling luck outs or chucking it up with a prayer on broken plays against slower players.

If that RV sales place wants Tebow in Jax bad enough to take out a billboard saying as much.....they should just HIRE him.

John Elway did literally nothing for the team that drafted him.

He ended up going to the Broncos regardless.

---

Everybody wants to be drafted by the Texans because they have the number 1 pick. Clowney has said it, Bortles has said it, and Teddy has also said it. And also, what you left out, is that he also said this 

 

"If something happens, and it's the Cleveland Browns, I'm going to pour my heart out for the Dawg Pound and try to win a Super Bowl for Cleveland," he says. "I don't care if they've had 20 starting quarterbacks since 1999. I'm going to be the 21st and the guy that brought them the Super Bowl."

 

"Johnny Manziel is the guy that -- whether it's Houston, Jacksonville, Cleveland or Oakland – you'll have to drag off that field before I stop playing for those guys. Those are my teammates. Those are my brothers from now on. I'm going to fight until there's no time left on the clock. That's Johnny Manziel."

 
 So yeah, how about you read the entire article and not a snippet. [/size]
Some of these threads are silly.

Vino, obviously I read the whole article. I did state that he did some clean up after most of the article was about him wanting to be a Texan. Hey, I like the kid, his words were just a bit off putting. He should realize, if he doesn't get picked at 1 or 2, he'd be lucky to get picked at 3.


And at this point last year, many had Geno Smith or Demontre Moore going top 3, and look how that ended up.

---

You said he did great things for the team that drafted him, not the team he played for.

---

Johnny Manziel made a strong statement about being a "Texas boy" & wanting to stay in Texas with the Texans. He did a little clean up, by stating it'd be a big mistake for the Texans if the Jaguars drafted him and they had to play each other twice a year. I'm a big Manziel fan, and it could be his competitive nature in wanting to be drafted #1,I just didn't think it was smart. To early in draft process & I'd rather have Clowney any ways.

 

No.

 

I was turned off by Manziel long before these statements.

 

These statements are harmless.

 

Peyton Manning essentially told the Colts the same thing.

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

However gus and snead are best friend, we may have a leg up for less

 

I sure hope this really benefits the Jaguars.  Somehow I doubt it will, but man I hope it does, especially this first round.

If that's the case, he goes #1 for sure.  Also, you can't outbid the Browns.  They have way more ammunition -- 2 first rounders and 2 third rounders -- for trading up than any team in this draft.

Where did the extra third rounder come from?

 

They would not trade their extra first round pick just to leapfrog us.
