As to Johnny Football, i think he's going to be a Bobby Nobody in the NFL. The instinct to ad-lib doesnt translate to the NFL.
Kliff Kingsbury was on the Dan Le Batard radio show not too long ago. Dan asked Kliff to give him some good Manziel stories. Kliff giggled and told Dan he didnt want to say anything before the draft but he'd definitely be back to the show after the draft to tell some of the stories. What Kliff did say, the biggest thing with Manziel was trying to keep track of what the hell he was running on the field. "Which play was that?" Kliff admits that he managed Manziel by trying to stay out of his way as much as possible and let Johnny do what he does best, improvise.
Improvisation doesnt work in the NFL. We're not talking kids who may never see it out of training camp. We're talking elite pros who will eat you up and spit you back out for the mere pleasure of devouring you again. Ask RG3. The pocket is where its at folks. Russel Willson buys time with his feet, eyes always down field. Buying time and improvising are nowhere near the same thing.
EDIT: Kingsbury was an OC at A&M (and a part time double for Ryan Gosling).
