Whelp, good for them I guess?

I wouldn't have passed on Clowney for any of this year's QBs. He's a once in a generation type of talent. I'm not sure about Mayock's crowning him as the most physically gifted DE in the history of the NFL, but he's certainly up there.

If that pick happens, I expect the Falcons or Jags to call the Rams in hopes of landing Clowney.

So, one guy puts Johnny Manziel as the top pick in his mock draft and this is proof that the Texans are looking at Manziel as the number one pick? Did you actually read the article that the link to the mock draft was from? This joker is the only "expert" saying Manziel is going #1.

If he can find reasons to stay motivated. IMO he hasn't shown that yet. Not saying I wouldn't take him though.

You really want to pit yourself against John McClain?

McClain has covered Houston Football for 35 years and wouldnt report it unless it was pretty solid. If they grab Manziel at #1 St Louis trades out of #2 with Atlanta so they can grab Clowney

Mike Zimmer could be right about Manziel, but man is he ever going to fail in the NFL with his old school approach. Concerned about a guy shooting a McDonald's commercial? Haha, idiot. Greg Schiano wants his schtick back.

I'll believe it when Manziel goes by the Vikings pick. Until then, it's strategy.

Well he'd make a fool of me.

There aren't any once in a generation talents in this draft IMO. I think Bridgewater should be #1, but I don't think he'll be a top two or three (or five) QB at any point in his career. Manziel at #1 makes sense for Houston due to marketing reasons.

Well, the thing is that he doesn't really have an issue with his work ethic. The only real knock on him is that, while he does everything that's asked of him, he doesn't really go above and beyond that. People are knocking him because he doesn't have the Jerry Rice type of fanatic work ethic that guys like Larry Fitzgerald, Ray Lewis, etc. all had.

If he really wants to be the best of all time, he's going to have to step up his preparation to at least close to those levels.

If he just sticks to the normal level of preparation that can be found in the league, he's still going to be a potential HOF player because of his pure natural talent.

When John McClane tells you to do something, you do it.
