You guys need to reconsider all the possibilities...
1. Johnny taking all the limelight while sitting 4 on the Rams' preseason depth chart.
2. Bieber break dancing on the Rams' sideline in $5k worth of "ghetto gear."
3. Cameras panning to Johnny's strung out Hollywood girlfriends.
:rolllaugh:
Ok so that said, I'd be ok with the Rams signing him IF his BS with his ex-girlfriend is over. Fisher is a master at handling troubled young men, so if there were a coach who could turn him around it's Fish. I'd be ok with him trying, even though it would get irritating at times. IMO what Johnny needs is a good woman to center him and he could find that in LA, right???

Probably, but lets say the rams draft Lynch at 15. Or a QB later than wont have a chance to start in 2016. Bring Manziel in, give him a chance to compete. He does have some talent. First screw up and he is gone. Make that perfectly clear. Give him some reps see what he can do. Rams do need help at QB. Give the guy a 2nd and probably his last chance.

Isn't it a waste of time to give reps to a QB and have him on such a short leash?

Especially since those are reps that could be going to QBs whose personal lives are not so fucked up.
He has talent - but has shown repeatedly he won't work at it - and quarterbacks have to work outside of the office, so to speak.
He was showing up drunk apparently.

Could turn out that way yes, but you would have to think Johnny cant get another job paying him the minimum salary that football does. Studying the playbook should be his focus, not the socializing.

It should be, but he's shown repeatedly that it isn't his focus. He has issues that need to be resolved first - for the sake of his life, as well as his career.
If a team were to give him a chance, what would be best for him would be a team with an aging starter, a vet backup, and a wish to find a developmental QB without giving up a draft pick. Let him spend a year studying the playbook and showing that he can be serious, away from the spotlight. If he can, let the vet backup go and promote him. If not, his career would likely be over.
