The part in BOLD is why Russel Wilson slid the way he did. People didn't believe he had the size. Now, that being said, Manziel doesn't have the body that Wilson does either.
I think that Manziel falls because of what you mentioned in terms of intangibles, but also falls because of his size because the NFL want's the 6'4 220 lb QBs.. Not the 5'11 mites who disappear in the mix so the fans can't see where the ball is..
I agree on the bold part however Manziel doesn't have Wilson's accuracy which for me along with being able to read a defense the most important QB qualities and he certainly doesn't have Wilson's character. Additionally Wilson can run but looks to pass first. Manziel wants to run even when he's going to pass. He'll get lit up like Vick and be perpetually injured.
