Think of all the changes since 2011.

Manziel has a good skill set but never grew up and acts like a thirteen year old still going through puberty. 

Do not see Baker being held back by that and he kind of reminds me of a shorter Favre with his gunslinger style that is obviously exciting to watch. Minus Brett's rocket launcher arm that not many, if any will ever match.

Think there were multiple solid QB's coming out and could have gotten more bang for their buck going different direction. 

Been wrong before though and we shall see soon enough. 

I think in the case of Mayfield vs Manziel, the college film showed the difference in their passing games.

Manziel was a much better threat with his legs compared to Mayfield, plus Manziel had Mike Evans the two years he played in college. I remember a lot of scrambling by Manziel to extend the play followed by a high pass to Evans, who often high pointed the ball with his elite size.
Mayfield wasn't quite the play extender as Manziel and he had to fit his passes into tighter windows.

The character issues with Manziel also obviously held him back, but he wasn't going to be nearly as successful at extended the play in the NFL like he did in college.
