Well I for one think it makes more sense he’ll choose to stay another year. Evans, too. Crazy? Read it or don't, I'll live.
Rationes et logica meas:
1.Draft status.
The NFL is a conventional league and #2 is a very UNCONVENTIONAL player. Yeah, yeah, RGIII, but he’s BIG and Manziel is still very NOT. He MIGHT be a franchise player in time, but at 6 ft, 200lbs and 20 years old that is a lot to ask an NFL GM to gamble $10 million on.

He’s compared to Doug Flutie, but Flutie was only successful for a short time with the Bills when Jim Kelly went down. The Bears drafted him late but he didn’t pan out anywhere (and he played EVERYWHWERE) and most of his career was in F’ing Calgary and Toronto of the CFL. The CFL…
He won a few playoff games, had some spectacular moments, but he wasn’t able to engineer more than a wild card play-off team, and unfortunately no Super Bowl victory either. NFL GM's don't get nostalgic.
And this is Doug Flutie’s DAUGHTER, Alexa.

His freaking daughter…
Still with me?
No?
F__K it.
2. THE trophy.
I think - and bear in mind, I don't know the guy any better than the rest of y’all - I think he wants another shot at the hardware. And with even a SLIGHTLY better defense he knows he can get it.

With the BCS B.S. that’s in place we aren’t gonna get a shot at the title this year. But with our propensity to improve as a season develops we are trending toward hitting on all cylinders by November. The schedule won’t be kind next year but Sumlin so far is tremendous on the road. Peyton Manning returned for a shot at the title and I think Manziel will, too.
3. He takes this $h!t seriously.
The dude is an absolute student of the game who wants to polish and hone his skills to perfection. He WANTS to be a better passer, have a better throwing motion, be better at reading defenses. That’s where San Diego George came in. One more season is what I think he needs.

Evans stays, too:
He’s too slow. Me, I don’t care, I think he farts roses, but to the NFL he’s too slow. He needs a summer with a speed coach in Colorado or wherever pro draft prospects train with those weight sleds and the bungle cords up their @$$.
