What is the case against Johnny Football?

#11

OP, it is a combination of all of the above that makes him far too risky to pick over a Teddy or Mariota. Any of those worries all by themself and it might be different...but undersized, reckless, AND significant off the field issues add up. 

 

Actually, I can live with the first and last, but I just can't see him changing his playstyle and with his playstyle he is going to be an IR machine against bigger, stronger, faster NFL defenders. He's already come scary close to major knee and shoulder injuries this year as it is. I just think he's going to be an even more injury prone Vick because of his size and inability to avoid big hits. 

 

Then, if he changes that reckless playstyle will be still be the player that he is right now...probably not. 

 

I haven't even gotten to the decision making, forcing throws, leaving perfect pockets habitually, etc because he has grown enough from last year to this year to think he might be able to get to a point where that is a distant second worry to the injury ones.
