Re: I wish Bills get OT draft next year
I'm not an advocate of drafting Johnny Manziel, but I think he could do well in the right system. He's got to have an offensive coordinator who's not going to get a migraine every time he ad libs, because that's what Manziel does. He's got to have an offensive coordinator who is willing to adapt and build an offensive system around Manziel's unique skill set. Personally, the higher Buffalo moves in the draft, the more I'm becoming and advocate of moving down. The more second and third round picks Buffalo can pick up the better. That's where you're going to find some good values at offensive guard, tight end, right tackle, and inside linebacker, not in the top ten.I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

Best wild card comparison might be Russell Wilson, who has more focus and discipline and is not so much about ad libbing, or Flutie, who always did great until people jumped up and down waving their arms and had linebackers sitting and waiting for the inevitably resulting scramble. Manziel doesn't look real disciplined and is going to meet some fast, big pro athletes and a big money lifestyle.
I'm with you though on moving down though unless they're intent on Mack or Mosley. This might be a good draft to stuff in a lot of early-to-middle round starters at a number of positions.

Originally posted by Mace View PostAd libbing just doesn't work well in the NFL unless you are a tank like Big Ben with a cannon and height, or Peyton Manning with speed, smarts, cannon and height. Rodgers gets brutalized because he runs plays with self discipline, I don't think Brady ad libs much on purpose, or Brees either, but Brees used to practice throwing with a blindfold to a place and wasn't so full of himself to think he was all that.

And Manning never ad libs. He runs the play as its drawn up just about every time, which in some cases can be his downfall.

Yes I meant he's fast in reading defenses, the field, and reacting. In that sense I meant more that he's one of the few QB's who can get away with it. I don't really think Manning runs the play as drawn up every time. You get a progression, 1-2-3-4, dump it off or throw it away, he cycles through and back again quickly, 1 or 2 may have not been open, but are now, so.....
I really think his biggest downfall is his salary. His teams always have to skimp on something to afford him, might be the line, receivers, defense, etc. Always surprises me he doesn't seem to notice it, as all big bucks QB's don't seem to.
But oh he can run, Mister.
I'm laughing again.
