Tough one now to take a chance on. Figure 12 games for his drugs/domestic issue is likely. So if he did clean himself up, he wouldn't be playing.

Not seeing this happen but if he did this is how I'd do it.

Say Manziel somehow cleans up his act soon. Gets his court stuff resolved. If a team wanted they could sign him to a vet min deal for 2 years in mid september (after week 4). They owe him zero dollars in 2012 (all lost due to suspensions). He can't come near the team, only actively partake in the NFL drug program. After this year he is then completely unguaranteed for 2017. They would then have him the entire off-season before the 2017 season to make a call on him before they would have to pay him a dime of any salary.

Of course that's 2.5 months away, so very unlikely, but if it happened, that's how I'd try for it.

He's only got 2 1/2 hours left to party.

You wanna bet that that last 2.5 hours was a drug-fueled rampage of abuses that would have made Keith Moon whince?

Yes, he's a free agent, still an active member in the NFLPA, still eligible to sign with an NFL team at any time. If he turns in his retirement papers he wouldn't be.

Hell he should stay there till 4th of July in 2017. No NFL team wants him & he is now known more for being a trainwreck than being a football player.

Save that talk for if he dies. Right now he's just partying his ass off.

FYI, this means he's suspended four games if he's signed, as long as he's a FA he's not serving his suspension.

Of course :suds: But does anyone REALLY seeing this guy being signed/playing this season? You'd have to be nuts to bring this guy into your locker room right now...

I can see him in a Patriots jersey this year. They seem to have a knack for getting the most out of suspended players

No I don't see anyone signing him, but he's not the 1st or last to be suspended while he's a FA. Teams that might be thinking about signing him have to know his status before hand.

The Arena League wants him, they think they can provide the support and guidance Johnny needs.

Problem with their line of thinking is he doesn't want any guidance, only way he goes to the arena league is if they provide him with hookers and blow, not support.

Isn't that how they get everyone else to play Arena football?
