Manziel would certainly change the nation's perspective/rhetoric on our schedule/first 4 games

#27

Quote:Of course not.

 

Let's assume we draft Manziel and we hit on the pick.

 

Manziel will still need a rookie WR opposite Shorts and at least two rookie OLs to produce at an acceptable level for him to win one of those shootouts.

 

Manziel will operate behind a completely reconstructed OL, none of which has started an entire season in our blocking scheme, three of whom will likely have no experience whatsoever in the offense (unless you are penciling in Rackley at RG and Brewster at C on opening day, in which case we're still in trouble along the OL.

 

Manziel will not chenge the perception going into those early season games.
You're right.  But I don't think any pick we make breathes life and hope into this franchise like Manziel would.  (I don't expect Clowney to be on the board at #3.)  I'm completely off the fence now.  There are certainly other picks that would be surer at #3 that would help the team win.  But Johnny Football as a Jag would bring Farve-like excitement to the field and to a longsuffering fan base.
