I agree...I would not take Clowney because of what happened with Mario Williams. I really like Bridgewater but you are correct, Reliant would be rocking every game with Johnny Football.

Hog Farmer, you need to watch the game from last night and watch it without Manziel's balls in your face. Almost every big play he made involved him running around and then passing to a receiver who had finally broke free or him simply running the ball. That will not work for him in the NFL. Defenders are too fast and he will end up getting hurt. Look at Kaepernick and Newton as examples. As soon as the NFL slowed down their ability to run the ball, they had to adjust to throwing the ball more from the pocket. Kaepernick still hasn't figured out how to be a successful QB from the pocket and it took Newton a full season to adapt his game. The major difference between Kaepernick and Newton to Manziel is that they both have NFL arms and Manziel doesn't.

Kiper has Manziel as 3rd best. Bridgewater #1, Boyd from Clemson #2, Mariota #4, McCarron from Bama #5

If Bridgewater and Manziel were equal prospects, I'd say Houston would take Manziel. The fact is that Bridgewater is the better prospect and teams don't select lesser players, especially at the QB position, for the sole purpose of exciting the fan base. If that were the case, Tebow would have been drafted by Jacksonville. Owners will always choose a chance at long term success over short term hype.

Manziel improvises too much to succeed in the NFL.

I wouldnt bet on it. Remember, the Texans passed on VY when in this same situation.
