There are lots of rumors flying around about NFL prospects and their potential landing spots in this month’s NFL draft, but one player is projecting his own future.
Florida State quarterback EJ Manuel took a guess as to the teams he might end up with during an interview on CBS Sports’ Eye on College Football podcast.
Manuel, who has been rumored to go anywhere between the first and fourth rounds, guessed that the Buffalo Bills, New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles were the three teams most likely to select him later this month. All three teams do make sense given their quarterback needs but the Eagles might even be the best fit because of Chip Kelly‘s need for a mobile quarterback in his offensive system.
There are still three weeks left until Manuel’s future is sown, and plenty could change in that short window of time. But he at least has a realistic expectation as to where he’ll be spending the first few years of his professional career.
