I hear ya...I didn't want the Browns to draft him, because I sort of root for them when they aren't playing the Bengals.  He had some impressive plays at TA&M, but as you said, a lot of it was off script or where he had one read or would scramble.  It isn't the NFL style, per se, but neither was what Mayfield did a lot of at Oklahoma.  Mayfield has a little more meat on his bones, but Manziel was a much better runner.  It just seems like we will never know what that kid could have been because of his attitude.

It would be nice to see a high round crapbag bust like that for the steelers, since now they are faced with replacing Brown.  They did well with Conner, but I can't help but think that offense might really crash back to earth with JJSS drawing the double teams and Conner is not the player Bell was in his prime.
