Could Manziel Yet Be A Texan?

I used "nor", not "and". Of course those guys are not big bodied. I never meant to suggest as much in my post earlier. That list was intended to show the types of (then available) QBs in which O'Brien had reported interest.

I harken back to the qualities O'Brien said he wanted in a QB back in this video.

1. They have to be able to throw the ball accurately. They don't have to be the greatest athletes in the world.
2. They have to be able to make good decisions. You can judge that off the field.
3. They have to be intelligent, with a great football IQ.

The big bodied talk came following his reported interest in Bortles and Mallett. The list here says smart decision makers. And none of it really suggests Manziel in my estimation, same as it didn't pre-draft, either.

Based on this past weekend's performances and results, both Hoyer and Cousins are going to be available next offseason for really cheap, if not for free. Without a running game to prop him up, Hoyer is just a guy. Cousins doesn't even look like that. I highly doubt CLE trades Johnny until after next year and only if things go sour with him.
