That would instantly upgrade the offense because the backs will have better holes to run through and the QB (whoever he is) will get more time to throw.
Plus, there are no issues with Matthews not being focused on football. With his bloodlines, he knows how to be a pro.
I'd be shocked if they were drafting that high because they'd probably lose all their remaining games (including both with Jacksonviile) in order to get there. But if you gave me a choice between Manziel and Matthews, that's a layup for me. Get Matthews.

LTs are worthy of the 4th overall pick, but not RTs unless they would be drafted with the plan of ultimately being the "franchise" LT. However since we've already got Duane Brown, well like I said in the first place, the 4th overall is too high for a RT.
