Quote:With all due respect, although Evans had a good game, he accounted for one score. Manziel spread out passes to 10 different receivers that game. Nick Saben himself went to Manziel (not Evans) and thanked him for the near heart attack. I also disagree with the Tebow comparrison. Tim can't pass or go thru his progressions like Johnny can. Everyone talks about Johnny's height. In 2 more months, he'll be 5'6. No one is talking about his foot size. The boy has like size 15 feet. Unusually big for someone his size. That may be the reason, he can stop and change direction on a dime. Also, with the fade pass, the rookie never competed for the ball. Bad decision to go to the rookie in that situation. That was a momentum changer. Anyway, in my humble opinion, he will be the 2nd quarterback off the board. And deservedly so.

Go back and watch the cut up of the game that I posted a page back. I even showed how fluky the first drive for Manziel was, where he lucked into 60 yards of passing because of Alabama's terrible CB and Mike Evans bailing him out. Also he was lucky not to get killed on the very first run. That continued for a large portion of the day. Taking away the jump balls to Evans and the quick flats/screens and Manziel made about 5 throws out of his 39 that will translate to Sunday success.
