I have liked Garappolo for quite awhile and, while I don't view him as an immediate starter, I don't look at him as a project. Just a QB to play behind Hoyer for awhile. To me a project is someone who has the physical tools but needs a LOT of fundamental coaching (like Thomas) to be a viable NFL QB.
I would look at Garappolo as a late 2nd to 3rd round pick & Thomas no earlier than 5th round.

Every rookie QB is a project. Just a matter of what needs fixed. With his tools, hes gotta master the mental side of the game. Thomas doesnt need to be as good mentally because running opens things up, but fixing the way he throws the ball naturally will be more of a challenge. I promise you, Thomas will never amount to shit as a QB.I have liked Garappolo for quite awhile and, while I don't view him as an immediate starter, I don't look at him as a project.

I am a huge Hokie fan and this guy was pretty darn good his first year starting but he had a future 1st round running back in the backfield with him and the #1 and #2 leading receivers in school history. After that year he went on to be pretty painful to watch. He has all the skills to be a freak QB but was remarkably inconsistent. There were times list season where watching him Saturday and then Weeden on Sunday led to pretty terrible hangovers Monday. As a late round project he'd be a fine pick but I don't see him lasting til the late rounds. Some team is going to draft him higher than he should be drafted based soley on his athleticism.

Meanwhile, Manziel is not throwing at the combine because, per George Whitfield, his
combine coach, from NE Ohio...says, Manziel is working on his mechanics and footwork
that is more NFL efficient.
Why he wouldn't have been workin on that in advance of the combine, who knows. Manziel
only ran a 4.6 whatever.... that won't get him success in the NFL like he had in college.
I'm really hoping the Browns go Bortles, or A. J.; McCarron now. They both are impressing
at the combine. Manziel needs good weather, and a dome, I think. I also wonder if Manziel
is an adrenaline junkie. lol. Going to some party ... I'll vote him "most likely to get injured
racing a motorcycle, speed boat, or car" in an off-season. Or, he may grow up, and be
a winning NFL qb and everybody will be proud of him on and off the field.

Manziel has been in southern California with Whitfield for at least the last month, maybe longer working with Whitfield on all aspects of the game.
