Stuff you do in the chemistry lab doesn't translate to what happens out in the field.


Cons: Though Manuel will scan the field and find second and third receivers, he is primarily a "see it/throw it" passer in an offense designed for quick and easy first reads. That's common in college and more prevalent in the NFL these days (it's basically what Tim Tebow did for the Denver Broncos in 2011), but Manuel will have to develop the multi-read aspect of his game. Will occasionally get too fine with his delivery, try to over-finesse throws, and lose his bearings for a few snaps at a time.

There is valid criticism about his stunning lack of mobility as a senior. Others have noted his knack for spinning into sacks, at times, when defenses would hound him deep in his own backfield.

Interesting enough he ranks very close to Kaepernick on most of these tests.

People who claim to be "Draft Experts" aren't always right, either.
