Just say no to Mayfield....

Fantastic college QB but I dont think his game will translate well to the pros.  I know this comparison comes up alot but his game is very similar to Manziel.  Undersized, most of his throws made outside of pocket, slow release.  If he falls to the 5th round i'd be ok with taking a chance on him, but not any earlier.  This guy is boom or bust.

I'm not banging the table for Manziel but 5th round???  I hope that's a joke because I can't take this seriously

1. There's already multiple threads for this topic

2. He's not similar to Manziel hardly at all.  There are reasons to pass on him, this isn't one.

3. Every single person in the draft has bust potential.  Many don't even have the chance at boom.

Mayfield will be taken in the 1st round, just from hype alone..........and i pity the poor team that gets him.

I’d like to think professional NFL scouts are not influenced by hype.

 

But then there are the Browns....
