Met a guy that went deep on him early, he said about 30000. I bet he's lucky to recover 5000.

Considering he's a full fledged addict I would say yes.

The answer is yes. I wouldn't touch this guy's autos (or any of his cards for that matter) with a 10 foot pole. He's toxic.

Having said that, he is, at the end of the day, still a Heisman Trophy winner, so that redeems him somewhat, but not much.

I own just one Johnny Manziel auto THANK GOD.

hahahahaha this. Yes you are insane

If he was not a complete animal and addict I would understand taking the risk for some upside. But with that not being the case I would say you are wasting money like he is wasting his on drugs and bags of Doritos.

Just be sure to pick up some Jamarcus Russells while you are at it. They are bargain priced!

He's never going to play in the NFL again. Him winning the Heisman means nothing. Wouldn't be surprised if someone digs something up on him from his college days and they take it away.

He's never going to get paid to throw a football again, let alone in the NFL. The CFL wouldn't even touch him. Hell, I doubt he could get a job on an arena football team!!

Is anyone bidding against you on his cards? If not, yes, you are.

Well the craziest part about it is the way he played never translated to the NFL anyway.... when he was at Texas A&M he had big wide receivers and he would just run around and throw it way down the field to let them go get it/fight for it. That's why his stats were so inflated, that was never going to work in the NFL, it's very ironic that the browns signed RGIII because of the style of play, makes zero sense just like manziel. *shakes head*

if your going to invest, go winston/mariota and dump them when the season comes, it's a win/win.

That's true, but the white knights will bash him for selling them off when there is a 1 week spike.

I have a slightly different opinion than most i guess. I would say yes, if you can get them really cheap (which is hard cause some people have lots of $$$ invest in him and still have really high BIN's or unrealistic prices). I'd say there is a very good chance he ends up on an NFL roster. He's not the first player with issues and his name will get him a roster spot with some desperate team. If he gets signed by a big market team looking for the front page cough* Cowboys cough* you will see a decent jump in his cards. While I highly doubt he gets significant minutes or starts ever again, if he does and does well his cards will go absolutely bananas!! So if you're able to get them for cheap id say but away!
