    Johnny Manziel Will NOT Go in the First 5 Picks.....

    Barring a trade up from a Manziel lover.

    I have been waffling back and forth on this, but now I am convinced barring a trade (which is certainly not impossible), Johnny Football won't go Top 5. I thought only team that may take him is the Browns, but late word is they are not.

    If you can bet Manziel Over 5.5 +130 with reasonable limits, knock yourself out. And Bortles +260 over Manziel may again have some value, but not as much as the Over 5.5.

    Downside of course is if some team trades up to draft Manziel, bet is a loss because teams do not matter for these wagers.

    Still think Cleveland may draft him and as you said teams may trade up (Dallas)

    You can't believe anything you hear now. Like any team is going to reveal their hand. If I was a GM I'd be calling these reporters on ESPN intentionally giving them bad information

    If you really wanted someone... at this point you would be talking bad about him in private so it would be leaked

    Fox Sports' Jay Glazer popped the big Johnny Football balloon in Cleveland Tuesday by reporting that the Browns will not draft Johnny Manziel.Why is this significant? Because Glazer has an excellent track record, and because he's tight with Browns coach Mike Pettine, a source told cleveland.com.
    I know teams are putting out lots of misinformation, but this seems pretty legit. Still a decent chance that TB or Min may trade up and there's also the possibility that the Rams deal Bradford and take Manziel.

    Based on nothing more than speculation, I bet he goes to Minnesota. They watched him work out then had dinner with him, then a day later you hear Zimmer talk about how many red flags he has. That's either a smoke screen or a slap in the face. Then they decline Ponder's option a few weeks ago and sign Cassell to a 2 year deal essentially giving them no long term outlook at Qb. Just a hunch.

    agreed all signs pointing to Minny drafting Bortles 8th. They probably let him learn for a year behind Ponder and it will benefit him a great deal and by next season his their starter.

    Geno Smith, not helping things.

    • Was at times the premier QB name of 2013 draft

    • Was considered a top 10 pick, sank to 2nd round

    • Lowest rated passer in of 39 qualifying QBs last season.

    Several mock drafts had placed the former Texas A&M quarterback with Cleveland early in the first, but Glazer has reported that the team does not intend to draft Manziel if they remain in the fourth slot. He later confirmed that Oakland also would not be using their No. 5 pick to draft Johnny Football.

    Report: Jay Glazer is either a remarkable mind reader or the Browns and Raiders don't believe in keeping secrets.

    Cleveland wont be drafting Manziel, I follow the Browns religiously and they arent taking a QB with their first pick I promise you.

    Manziel on browns would be insta fail.

    But any qb on browns is a long term fail.

    He will go top 5 but he shouldn't even be top 10.
