I hope the Browns love Manziel enough to jump us for him, but after seeing Caldwell's first draft I think he's a pretty good judge of QB talent.  He refused to waste a pick on a QB last year and I do believe he does not have Manziel ranked high either.  

 

I don't get the love for Manziel.  He's a Heisman ?  He should be, he has most offensive talent around him than any other QB (I don't see anyone hyping McCarron like Manziel?  He wins and puts up big numbers).  He'll sell tickets?  So will winning.  He looked amazing against Duke ?  (Tom Savage 23-33 424 yds and 6 tds.  Stephen Morris 30-49 379 yds and 2tds)  He's beaten the most talented teams?  (Texas A&M has had lots of 1st round picks and more coming out this year.  They should be beating talented teams)

 

His scrambling won't translate into the NFL because of his size.  He does not have a strong arm.  He can loft the ball up to Evans and wind up and throw it far, but on the short passes and intermediate routes... way too much air under the ball.  He makes too many bad decisions. 

 

Can he become a good NFL QB?  yeah... if you build the team around him.  If you surround him with high level WRs (like Evans), high level tackles (like Matthrews, Jockel)  and make sure you run a very fast pace offense.
