SAN DIEGO -- Johnny Manziel has to show that he is a changed man.

That process continued Thursday when the former Cleveland Browns quarterback threw to receivers at the University of San Diego's pro day.

Scouts from 13 NFL teams were on hand to watch Manziel throw. The Browns, New England Patriots, Chicago Bears, Los Angeles Chargers, New York Giants, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Jets, Oakland Raiders, Tennessee Titans, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, Carolina Panthers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers were represented.

...

The search for a 3rd QB is on?

It’s easy to say if you’re desperate enough for a second chance. He was a spoiled brat rich kid who happened to be a hellova college football player. I’m not buying it. IMO he’s telling people what they want to hear to try and get another shot in the NFL.

He's not worth the risk. But I understand the desire to have him work with Reid for a year and, if all goes well, trade him.

I'd guess these clubs are hearing good things from their sources about the sincerity of this comeback attempt, or they wouldnt even bother to show up

If he is for real, it would be an inexpensive and out of the box way to acquire a young, first round talent on the cheap... that said, would this guy really have the patience to be a 3rd stringer for an indefinite period of time? Or is he hoping to be The Man sooner rather than later?

Gravedigger · 03-23-2018, 05:14 AM

Better than Henne.

Red Dawg · 03-23-2018, 05:28 AM

Hell no. He's not a good pro talent and a dumbass. Kap would be a better option.

Big no to Johnny Football. It’s all an act to get one more, though not for NFL standards, big payday. Dude washed out of the league and if you think he can get a 6 figure salary anywhere else then I’ve got this here bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. If he can con 1 team into giving him a chance it’s probably for league min, which is more than he’d earn the whole next decade scanning toilet paper at the Walmart checkout line.

I'll pass, we've already had 1 too many wacko 3rd string QBs. I'm in agreement that we should just look for a late round or UDFA for a 3rd. I'd even consider bringing back some other QB we cut in favor of Bray

If he is smart, he will sign with the Chiefs just to get Andy Reid’s stamp of approval so he can make the big bucks with another team.

Say what you want about Andy but QB’s who tutelage under him seem to have value to other NFL teams.

Mile High Mania · 03-23-2018, 06:29 AM

I get the interests... but, I just cannot imagine a team signing this guy. I'd rather have Kap.

Hog's Gone Fishin · 03-23-2018, 07:02 AM

So, technically he's available ,right . Anyone can just sign him?

Broncos would have been a better team with him last year. Well, EVERY year since HGH left.

What if KC is there just to troll Denver into signing him? That would be some funny stuff right there.

Yeah, I’d rather you had him, too.

B_Ambuehl · 03-23-2018, 07:26 AM

He's potentially too good of a QB to come here when you have a young QB yet to establish himself. Remember he didn't get run out of cleveland for bad play, he was an ascending young big play guy. He got run off for off the field stuff. Get a couple slapdick UDFA camp arms but Johny football is too dangerous to come to K.C. What happens if Mahomes has a bad preseason game and Johny Football comes in and lights up the 4th quarter?
