Despite there being markedly better prospects available, the talk of the draft continues to be Johnny Manziel and where he will land. There might not be a more intoxicating prospect in draft history than Johnny Manziel as he possesses all the hype we thought Tim Tebow would have but he has more talent to justify the chatter.

But while there are general managers anonymously on record as saying they don’t want to be tempted by having Manziel on the board, FOX Sports insider Jay Glazer believes Johnny Football will be on the board for 19 teams before the 20th takes him.

Arizona is in the market for a quarterback and Manziel is an intriguing option. It seems that the later he slides, the more teams could become interested since they didn’t think he’d be there. That might be the case with the Cardinals as he fits their need and gives the franchise the exciting name it may need to put them over the top.
