Johnny Manziel will meet with Patriots

Johnny Manziel replacing Tom Brady seems like a far-fetched idea.

But it won’t stop the New England Patriots from meeting with the former Texas A&M quarterback according to NFL.com

The Pats have the No. 29 selection in the first round, so they would likely have to trade up to land Manziel.

The Texans confirmed that they will also host Manziel in Houston after his pro day in College Station.

Don't take Johnny Douchebag!

Actually, a while back Tom made some fairly snide comments about Manziel...don't think he's a fan, so unless Bilichek and Kraft totally ignore Tom's wishes, this is just proforma for whatever reason.

do this.

It would help Johnny Overrated if he could learn behind a great QB - Brady would definitely qualify but I would feel sorry for him if he has to do it.

to draft the overrated Manziel. The Texans are going to take him, because they just can't help themselves.
