I think its funny how the Manziel fanboys can't see themselves as acting just like the tebowies did....the first step is admitting you have a problem. ....
If that RV sales place wants Tebow in Jax bad enough to take out a billboard saying as much.....they should just HIRE him.

I for one am far more intrigued with what some of the excuses on these boards will be come next Friday. I wouldn't expect ya'll to be very kind to the Manziel supporters if by chance we don't get him on Thursday. Hopefully you'll be humble enough to take some of your own medicine when we do...

I want 3 players. Clowney, Bridgewater, Manziel. Jaguars have the number 3 pick. Just give me one of those 3 at 3, and I'm happy.

I feel sorry for some of you guys, I think you've sold yourselves short by constantly comparing Manziel to Tebow. Listen, I know a lot of you on these boards were burned by the Tebow fiasco, and that's exactly what it was, a fiasco. But you're really shortsighted if you compare every prospect Jacksonville is excited for to Tim.
Ask Colts, Redskins, Panthers, etcs fans. They'll tell you, yes, it IS actually okay to be really really excited about a quarterback in the top 3 and what he can do for your franchise.

We are, I'm thrilled over a number of outcomes in this draft. Just not the over-hyped and under-sized Manziel.

The difference is that I won't agree with it but cheer the team on anyway. That can't be said for the Tebros or Manzites, they all move off to whoever takes their boy, only appearing occasionally to tell us how much better it would be if we'd just bring him in from his job at the TV studio.

Bear with me sprtsgod, but dare I say 'underhyped' Manziel?...Statistically speaking, Johnny surpassed basically everything the Netwons, RG3s, Lucks, Bradfords, Staffords, etc ever did in their collegiate careers. And yet each of them were hyped to THE number 1, or at worst number 2 pick. The fact that Manziel outplayed all of them, and yet some say may not go in the top 3 or even top 10? I'd say for his body of work, he's underhyped compared to QBs who've done far less but been hyped far more in the last few years. Just something to think about.

There was a good idea with the guys you listed how their play would translate to the pros. I have no problem with taking Manziel, but let's face it- nobody knows how its going to go. He may light it up, or he may fall flat.And please don't ever call him under hyped again.

We disagree.

 

I do not put Manziel anywhere near Luck, RGIII and Newton.

I realistically don't see the skill set, athletics or ability to the QB's above.

If on the other hand, Dave and Gus pick Manziel at 3, I will be stunned, but will still support the Jags.

By the way, the Hyped bit pre darft and all.

It is just that. Hype.

When they have no time,  they think about it!

When they go down hard, they think about it!

 

Just watch Peyton, Andrew, Caep even Mr. Bundchen.
