John McClain of Houston Chronicle says its Manziel to Texans at 1

[RamsJunkie]

John McClain of the Houston Chronicle projects the Texans to use the No. 1 overall pick on Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel.
Mock drafts can almost always be crumpled up and thrown away as garbage. But this projection is notable because McClain is nationally respected and plugged in to all things Texans. He continues to be staunch in his belief that the team will be taking a quarterback at No. 1 overall despite the recent push for South Carolina DE Jadeveon Clowney. The draft is four weeks from Thursday.

"John McClain of the Houston Cronocile PROJECTS the Texans to use the No. 1 overall pick on Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel."

Can't believe the draft has been moved back, too many rumors and people saying "THIS IS GANA HAPPEN" kinda scenarios... This is gana be a long 4 weeks...

I personally think it's down to Bortles, Clowney, and Manziel, but mostly the first two.

I would be absoutely shocked if Johnny football went number one

IMHO they'd be INSANE to do that.
BUT....everyone has an opinion.....that's for sure.

Hope so! Now we play "Lets Make a Deal"

 

[mr.stlouis]

Yeah, with Bortles and Clowney available our pick will jump.

 

[jsimcox]

John McClain? Did he also say 'yippee ki yay!!!'?


Seriously though, i'd love them to take Manziel at 1. Leaves Clowney wide open for us!

 

[Rams and Gators]

Texxas A&M 1, 2?

That would be fine by me then Clowney is a Ram...Just think of this Future Headline:

Clowney Makes Kaepernick look Silly!

I would really LOVE it if Texas took Manziel though........I'd be giddy.

I can see them taking Manziel. McClain is pretty plugged into the Texans. He said the experience Houston had with Mario Williams was not one that the team/fans were happy with. Mario didn't play hard on every down just like college and the fear is that's what they will get from Clowney.

Houston may be looking for some magic and Manziel appears to have more than any other QB. So who knows?

And I still think the Rams will trade #2 if Clowney is there, assuming the get their price.

Texas A&M QB Johnny Manziel will visit the Texans on April 21 and 22.
Due to the proximity of the school, the visit likely does not count towards the Patriots' allotment of 30. Regardless, the meeting is notable and will receive plenty of attention. Expect the Texans to select Jadeveon Clowney with the top pick, but discussions have by no means ended at this point in the process.

Just a mock draft. He had Bortles going #1 overall on the last one. Might have the other kid going #1 overall next time.

That said, I'd say that there's a snowballs chance that Manziel goes #1 overall. They didn't coax O'Brien back to the NFL to select a QB that doesn't fit what he looks for at the position.

Your first posts says he projects Manziel to be selected and this post he says he expects Clowney to be selected.

The dude is just doing this to get clicks on his website.

Bortles is supposed to be visiting the Texans the week before Manziel for his private workout. It's far from settled as yet, IMO.

Well FWIW given the choice between Manzeil and RGIII ,I'd take Manzeil ,IMO he'll play the way RG did, but be smart enough to get down when the time comes

Texxas A&M 1, 2?

Huh... From a Houston paper? Imagine that.
