Manziel to Cowboys makes sense.

[ArlingtonCowboys100]

I may catch hell for saying this. Young qb with alcohol problem. We know jerrah and stevie like him. I personally would not mind it.

 

[jarntt]

to return punts?

 

[Inquisitor95]

To work in the marketing office and give stadium tours.

Manziel has 2 years left on a cheap contract. It has some appeal since he'll likely be no worse than other back-up QBs. Multiple teams should be interested if the Browns will accept a low pick.

A trade isn't going to happen until the new NFL year in March. A lot of things will be clearer then, including Manziel's NFL status. He is almost certainly in stage 1 of the NFL's testing procedures due to his media coverage. If he hasn't fallen foul of a 4 game ban by March then he's probably worth taking a chance on. Since he'll be 1 mistake away from a ban for some time to come any team trading for him ought to have a #3 QB somewhere on the books.

Manziel wouldn't be a reliable #1 QB but i'd prefer him to Cassel as the #2 QB.

I can't believe I'm saying this but....I'd be fine with Manziel in Dallas as a #3 behind Cassel. Dallas would be foolish to not carry 2 plus Romo from here on out.

If your goal is to keep the Cowboys in the headlines by all means bring Manziel. But I hope it never happens.

Guessing you are from here in Tyler and don't we know what all kinds of additional struggles this could likely bring for Jonathan.

Nope. I just think it would create a circus and I don't think Manziel is going to make it in the NFL.

 

[Eastbay]

Would rather have Robert.....

 

[fordman84]

Not a fan of Manziel in Dallas. He's just another headline. I don't think he has the body or the brain for the NFL. He should have stayed in college and enjoyed all the fame that goes with it. He thought when he got to the NFL he could party all he wants. But he has learned that he has even less leniency now because he isn't just playing a game but going to work.

Sadly, by the time he matures enough to put in the work to be a successful NFL QB he will have lost his one attribute he has...his speed.

Way better option.

Didn't Jerry Jones want him initially anyway?

That's the rumor. But he has to have seen all the drama and little substance on the field. Jerry is always a sucker for a big name or a big ego, so JFF could end up here. I just don't see the need. Anytime a 3rd string QB is making headlines, the team has gotten sideways.

That's what I thought. Thought I read somewhere that he (Jones) want to make a "splash" and get him

 

[cowboycolors]

Johnny has demons that he must get under control and I don't think the bright spotlight of Dallas would help that at all. I mean come on guys he is in Cleveland not exactly Dallas NY Chicago. In Dallas I think it would just open up another tent in the Jerry Jones Circus. And while the Circus is always open with Jerry attendance is down right now and that's the way I would like for it to stay.

JMHO

oh I agree with you and it wouldn't help to have Jones as the owner either and I think it would get worse but if there is a team out there who would want him it would be the Cowboys imo.

Typical Jerry yes he did. He is often more interested in headline than football it seems.

Yeah, the rumor is that Jerry had written Manziels name to submit to Goodell on draft day and his son took the card away.

 

[fordman84]

JFF should go to Houston. Close to home so close to his friends. Close to Austin. They need a QB. And he can easily hide in one of the suburbs of Houston and stay out of the light if he wanted.
