ESPN's Field Yates stated on NFL Insiders Monday that there "has been buzz in league circles" about the Eagles' interest in Johnny Manziel.

One totally unverified, dot-connection-based rumor recently had the Eagles trading up to draft Manziel, perhaps as high as the No. 1 pick.

If you'd start Alex smith over a guy who is showing flashes of promise like EJ Manuel or Ryan tannehill you should probably be fired

Unless you're 100% gunning for a super bowl THIS YEAR

Maybe, but Manuel, I don't know. I watched him play a lot last year and there were occasional flashes of brilliance there were also lots of oh-my-god-why moments. This is to be expected as a rookie. Granted he only played 10 games, and part of that is due to the fact that if you look at his stats he was enroute to having a 45 sack season. Also a 3100 yard passing season with slightly more TDs than INTs.

Of course you run into the issue of small sample size. I think Smith for Manuel is a wash simply because I don't see Manuel having the ability to hold up healthy for multiple seasons or even a whole season and a playoff game or two if somehow the Bills pull their heads out their rear end. They won't With Manuel, yes you are gambling on youth and potential but you are also gambling on a guy who had 3 knee injuries in one season. Even Mike Vick is slightly more durable than that.

Someone has to trade up for Manziel at this point. There's been about a dozen teams who have been rumored to. Some of this bullshit has to stick.

I like Manziel, if his brand of bullshit works in the NFL it'll be pretty cool. I'm also glad my favorite team isn't in the market for a QB cause i'm not totally convinced his brand of bullshit will work.

Also if the cowboys draft him all bets are off.

I mean I'm there too, I don't want him to go to the Texans, but I'll be a bandwagon fan of whatever team he goes to.

Except like the Jags I guess.

But I like him as a QB more than Bortles who I think deserves more hate.

I've been running FanSpeak mocks (http://fanspeak.com/ontheclock/) over and over at work because I'm bored and why not, and it's frustrating how often Clowney is available for the Browns at #4. But sadly I don't get a shot at Manziel with pick 26 very often

Manziel is a real cool customer that does cool unnecessary stuff and will probably die in the NFL or cost his team several games worth of pick sixes.
