This kid will likely win the Heisman as a redshirt Freshman and dominated the majority of the SEC and you guys are laughing at my analysis? I guess every other college football analyst are are also wrong.

He may not have the measurables as a prototypical pro QB but some of the things he does on the field go beyond measurable numbers.

Please direct me to where any analyst is projecting JFF as the #1 overall draft pick.

Look, he is a phenominal college QB, and could win multiple heismans. But that doesn't mean the NFL scouts are going to be salivating.
He doesn't have a strong arm at all. Yes, he is fast. But so are NFL defenses.

I love Manziel and think he should win this year's Heisman, but he is not a top-tier NFL prospect right now. Numbers aren't everything, look at Tyler Wilson. I continue seeing him with high 1st round projections and he is obviously not putting up the best numbers.

NFL scouts have certain physical attributes they want to see. While Manziel has the athleticism that teams love, he has work to do on making his arm stronger. The problem with that is his body build doesn't seem like he could add too much weight onto it and add onto his arm strength. Will he be in the NFL? I think so, but I don't see him as a first rounder just yet. He still has some things he needs to prove and improve on as the LSU game showed that (which I'm surprised other SEC teams are not using that film to help)
