No, they need a QB, but I agree, Manziel is no #1 pick. You only take a QB #1 (or #2 like we did) if he's a sure thing.
The media's hyping Russell Wilson and his weekly 150-yard performances as proof a shorter QB can succeed, so now a wave of short QBs are going to take over the league. Sure.
Bridgewater would be my choice if I were Houston. Clowney would be an easy pick to make and likely won't backfire but they aren't going anywhere without a QB. Having the #1 pick doesn't come around often, not even for Oakland and Cleveland, so they need to make it a franchise-changer. A QB is the best way to accomplish that. A defensive player, while valuable, usually doesn't "save" a team the way a franchise QB can.
