I think it's pretty obvious that Brees' game coming out of college was a lot closer to the NFL QB mold

Did you watch Brees in college?

He was one of the prototype's for the "spread QBs won't make it in the NFL" argument. He average like 5YPA for his first 2 years in the league and everybody (including me) declared him a bust.

I think that being a spread QB puts you behind on day one, but half of the division 1 programs out there are running spread offenses these days.

They weren't when Brees was in college.

Sure, but the point is just that a spread QB is closer than one who runs as much as Manziel does to being ready to start in the NFL.

I would probably die from the shock if we were to take him, but if we do then fine, I'm on board, let's ride.

It would just give me a lot of heartburn to see us try this, because much like our strategy of never drafting QBs high, there's a pretty well established pattern of what works in the postseason in the NFL and we're trying to do something that has really never been shown to work.

Manziel had 144 rushing attempts last season. He had 429 pass attempts.

Alex Smith in his final year had 135 and 317 pass attempts.

Tim Tebow had 217 rushing attempts to only 213 pass attempts.

How much did you watch Manziel play? You seem convinced that he's a running QB. He's not any more of a running QB than Alex Smith is.
