With the 16th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the Bills select Florida St. QB E.J. Manuel. Highly productive for Florida State, Manuel no doubt has the physical tools and character/intangibles to be a successful NFL starter. However, he must do a better job with his footwork/stride in order to throw accurately every time. Additionally, while he usually does an excellent job of going through progressions while in pocket, he needs to avoid stopping during progressions and staring down his primary receiver in order to keep defensive backs from making as many plays on his passes. Although Manuel's Pro Day was not stellar, he showed a very strong arm, but was high and outside on a number of passes which forced his receivers to adjust to make tough catches. Source: NFL.com
