At San Diego's Pro Day, Patriots also took Johnny into the building to weigh him so there is definitely something there

Seahawks just released Boykin (accused of domestic violence), Wilson is the only QB under contract. Maybe a landing spot for at least a shot at a roster?

I could see it since Russell and Manziel have somewhat similar play styles but it would be tough to bring Johnny in as more than a third string QB before training camp to see how he does

Johnny Manziel is lifeeeee

JFF as a split end or some other utility back type?

I seem to recall Johnny saying that he would not be against joining a team in a "Danny Amendola or Julian Edelman" role, but not as a defensive back. The fact that he can also play quarterback might allow a team to open up a roster position. I do think that is quite possibly his only route back to the NFL, and Belichick has had some success with reclamation projects in the past, so who knows? Weirder things have happened.

But I don't wanna like the patriots

The seahawks weren't able to protect Wilson. I would hate to see Johnny get broken too.

Exactly, best chance because of what you say. I doubt it but it makes much more sense that New England.

Great idea, a position he has never played.

Can Johnny play tight end? I don't know what that position is or what it does, but I've heard rumors that they do something on the football field.

Lol breaking news... a bunch of nfl teams were in college station and TALKED to manziel.

Cool! Is that your opinion or did you talk to the pats and JFF about this to confirm your post?

Also to the poster who said "great a position he never played"...Antonio gates never played college football before starting in the NFL. Several college qbs have gone on to become good at other positions. Athletes gonna athlete.

My point was that IF he's going to make it back to the NFL, it will probably have to be at a position other than QB, and he appears to be open to that. Is it likely that he could pull of a position change this season? Julian Edelman had never played any position other than quarterback in high school and college, and he started the second game of his rookie year as a wide receiver. So it can be done. But as I said, who knows what they are thinking?

Johnny doesn't have the physical talent to be a slot WR, at least it's a dime a dozen

He will play QB

I wonder if Saban is talking to Belichek about Johnny...

The NFL's ratings suck (since Johnny left).

He puts butts in seats and eyes on TV monitors.

JFF has to provide some proof on the field, but there was plenty of a dearth of talent displayed at QB in the NFL this year. Some of the worst I've seen...and we know what the Browns' record is without Johnny.

Definitely agree. Great players can play more than 1 position on the field, but most choose not to. it would be very interesting to see how many players could have extended their NFL careers if they would have been less egotistical and switched positions. Most all of them played both sides of the ball in high school, why can't they move around later on?

I'm assuming any player with NFL potential could play just about any position in high school and be relatively successful due to superior athletic ability, not that its not possible in the league but the playing field is much more even in regards to athletic ability. Just my two cents.

I agree. There's isn't a big gap in talent and athleticism once they reach the NFL. That being said, players that are that talented and athletic can and do have the capacity to learn a new position at a high level and be successful given proper coaching and attitude.

Says who about putting butts in seats and eyes? Maybe in 1 area in Texas.

The Patriots are an outstanding organization.

Exactly the type of culture he would need, IMO.
