Mike Mayock: I wouldn’t use a first-round pick on Teddy Bridgewater


Quote:"Johnny had almost identical completion percentage to Teddy last year. 71% to 69.9% if I remember correctly." His completion percentage will not translate to the NFL, he throws to wide open WRs after running around for 5-10 seconds, Teddy makes quick reads and gets the ball to the WR on time and accurately.

 

"Johnny had more yards 'per pass' than Teddy" Teddy didn't have a 6'5 WR to throw the ball up in double coverage who could come down with it.

 

"Johnny had a higher passer efficiency of the two" Again, because he did have the ability to extend plays in college, I do not see this working well in the NFL. 

 

"Johnny overall had more yards passing on the year"  That means absolutely nothing, he did throw the ball deep more often, he ran a college spread type offense with a huge first round WR on his team who could catch anything. 

 

"Johnny had less sacks than Teddy did last year" Not only does Manziels mobility help him in this category, he also has played with 2 OT's that have/will go in the top 10 of their respective drafts. 

 

 

To answer your initial question, yes I meant his mobility not only to take off with the ball, but to avoid pass rushers and to bide time. 
haha, every excuse in the book
