I'm calling it now: EJ Manuel will the #1 pick by the Chiefs

To attempt to educate people making claims like EJ couldn't move the chains and I like Smith but don't like EJ because EJ has a crap long ball.

Way to WAY oversimplify the argument.

They both run really well and had concerns about accuracy?

Not comparable at all. Kaep has a stronger, more accurate arm, more touch on his passes, makes better reads, and is a better runner. Manuel isn't as fast or elusive as Kaep. I liked Kaepernick in 2011 (took him in the 2nd rd of the CP mock). Manuel won't amount to anything, IMO. As I've stated over and over and over.

To me his ceiling - which I don't think he'll ever reach - is Aaron Brooks.
