The final week of season for me was to see where my Vikings would end up in the draft order. The Vikings have accomplished the great feat of securing a Top 10 draft position, #8 spot. Not quite the #3 overall pick they had two years ago, but give them another year, they might even get the #1 or #2 overall pick by this time next year.
If they draft that QB from Texas A&M, the GM needs to be taken to the Big Falls "powerhouse" and answer to a bunch of hard-drinking loggers who happen to live and die with the Vikings. He would not fare well in my little home town bar.
I can only hope there is a greater fool in those seven teams ahead of us and one of them takes Manziel before the Vikings are on the clock. After all, while the rest of the NFL thought Christian Ponder was a second or third round pick, this same GM blew the #12 overall pick on that decision. Something about lust for a decent QB that creates insanity in NFL management.
Manziel is a special talent at the NCAA level, but his scrawny jitterbug frame is going to get smashed into oblivion in the NFL. Too bad for him and too bad for whoever drafts him.
If the Vikings pick Manziel, I am on record as officially becoming a Packer or Bears fan.
