I'll take Manuel, he seems better equipped to deal with the media and become the leader of a franchise. While Geno is already making proclamations of greatness, already had a twitter battle, and now is going to the media frenzy that is the NYJ.

Geno going to the Jets just solidifies it for me. I will not be drafting him.

Was disappointed in these landings spots as someone that holds 1.01 in a superflex league. The only spots I wanted to avoid was Oakland, Jets, and Buffalo. However, Buffalo did go out and really try to get more weapons so I'd lean to Manuel if I had to make this choice.

I'll take manuel, the bills really seem to believe in him. I can't say the same about the Jets and Geno and that could make all the difference. I also don't like Geno's attitude and going to the jets just seals the deal for me.

Even if I knew ahead of time that Manuel would be a bust today, I still wouldn't pick Geno. :P

Not liking G.Smith much at all right now. Limited options in the passing game. Running game are a bunch of questions. I didn't like him leaving the first round of the draft before it was officially concluded and he was filmed leaving live by the NFL network. Then saying he wouldn't be back the next day (until someone got to him and advised him that he was hurting his own stock). Tweeting that Thursday was going to be a huge day (or something to that effect), because he thought he was going early in the draft and then not being able to handle it. I don't know how true the reports of him being on the phone rather than interacting with team personnel, but I'm growing less impressed by G.Smith every day.

I didn't like him pre-draft, and his attitude and situation sealed the deal for me. He'd have to drop very far in my drafts until I'd consider drafting him. Even in my 32 team leagues. The NY media is going to eat him alive, wouldn't be at all surprised if he ends like Sanchez.

It doesn't matter what we want. Once we get it, we want something else.
