But that's not at all unusual for a QB this time of year. And let's face it, people in a general sense have a harder time evaluating the players at the position. RG3 was barely considered a top-10 pick prior to March of last year, and to this day people still refer to him as a running QB despite the fact that he had developed into quite the successful pocket passer at Baylor. A year earlier, Cam Newton was rarely (if ever) discussed as the #1 pick, and by the time the draft rolled, ESPN (Kiper) on the live broadcast called it a "risky" pick. I think everyone (myself included) was surprised by his rookie year, and how much more of a polished presence he had in the pocket, since (unlike RG3) he primarily was a runner at Auburn. Bradford had the shoulder issue and the "spread QB" monkey on his back in 2010 (people talk about this year as a weak class...look back at that one sometime). People argued strongly against Matthew Stafford in 2009, because while he has a rocket launcher, he threw too many picks. (Ironically, also in 2009, you had people fall madly in love with an inexperienced project player (Mark Sanchez), something which also often happens, but that's a whole other post.)

Probably the closest association that I can make to this year is 2008, when Matt Ryan went 3rd, which in retrospect was an absolute travesty. (Remember, the Dolphins took Jake Long and the Rams Chris Long.) Coming out of BC, Ryan was criticized for a lack of arm strength and for throwing interceptions. Comments were made at the time (by professionals) questioning whether he would even be a first round pick in "any other year". (Where've we heard that before...) People actually thought the Falcons should've taken Glenn Dorsey.

So my question is this: do we want to be the Dolphins and Rams from 2008? Or do we want to be the Falcons?

Why is this so hard??

Nice. I've been using Ryan as the litmus test for this years QB prospects. If a prospect is at least as good a prospect as Matt Ryan then he's good enough to take with the 1st pick in the draft.

Hell, if he was white there wouldn't be any discussion about him not being good enough. Hes a black QB who doesn't run, so Mel Kiper, BlackbobrunKC, and other internet trolls are scared.

I think Geno's race is a detractor for him. There just haven't been that many true pro-style/pure passer black QBs (Leftwich? JaPorky?) and people are slow to adjust.

Different is weird, and weird is bad (for most).

But things like seeing all the varied throws he makes (and especially the touch on them) were an impressive selling point. The only thing he really needs to prove from a throw department is that he understands when to drill a throw in.

He understands touch.
He throws the fade very well.
He fits throws into the second level.
He's willing to take a hit to make a throw.
He throws the deep ball accurately and with touch (As a Mizzou fan, I'm used to watching strong-arm guys rifle a great-looking bomb that ends up 6 yards over the WRs head... cough, cough, Blaine Gabbert, cough, cough...)

Also, seeing the chart about him throwing to various areas of the field was a cementing bit of evidence. He can threaten every level of the defense.

Complaining about a guy being a product of YAC and just making accurate throws to WRs when the new coach is a WCO disciple seems silly/naive, too. That's what the whole WCO is predicated upon!

Seeing as you watched quite a bit of Gabbert, would you say Smith is at a higher level at this point?

From what I've seen? Yeah. Now, I didn't watch every single throw Smith made in college (like I did with Gabbert). But I have seen enough to feel confident Geno is a better prospect overall.

He doesn't match Gabbert's physical ability, not quite. But he gets more out of what he has than Gabbert. Size is similar. Smith isn't probably as straight-line fast, but he's much craftier in the pocket and uses his mobility better. Arm strength is an edge to Gabbert, but Smith's is still very good.

Biggest differences are pocket presence/accuracy. Smith has them in spades. Gabbert didn't.

In other words Smith has a pair, Gabbert not so much.

Warren Moon? Donovan McNabb? Steve McNair?

Moon, McNabb, and McNair were. Just because you can run doesn't automatically preclude you from being a pocket passer. Wilson and Griffin are both scramblers, but had a lot of success passing. Griffin had 5 interceptions, for Christ's sakes.

I also watched all of Gabbert. Geno is ten times the QB that Gabbert was. When Gabbert decided to come out I knew it was based on where he would go on the draft, not on how well he would do in the NFL.

Gabbert pretty much sucked ass compared to Geno.

Shifting the goal posts now, aren't we. They're good quarterbacks. That's the point. The moron above openly doubted whether a black player can be a good quarterback.

That was his incredibly moronic comment. I pointed to three right off the bat who were successful "pro-style/pure passer" black quarterbacks. Wilson and Griffin are also very good passers, though they rely heavily on scrambling. They're certainly no Michael Vick, who was actually a terrible quarterback who happened to have a cannon arm and be able to run.

Thanks for trying, though.

No he didn't. He was talking about other people and their perception of black QBs. Not his own. And I think he's probably correct. Black QBs are often talked about in different terms than white QBs, with more focus placed on their athleticism than their skill set and in general more questioning of their intelligence and their work ethic. It's better than it used to be, but there's still a ways to go.

I know what he's doing. It's still an inherently racist point. The fact that there haven't been many black quarterbacks overall clouds his judgment of the proportion that are pure passers. It's much higher than he thinks.

I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I was saying that racism is holding Smith's perception back.

People are used to stud black QBs being able to be running threats (Griffin, Wilson, McNabb, McNair - all guys with great quickness or speed or escapability or all three). When they see one who is a pure pocket passer like Smith, that racism comes in. Despite the fact that Smith is MUCH MUCH more accurate than Wilson or Glennon, people have a hard time buying it because he's black.

His point is that many people are subconsciously racist and that it influences their ability to objectively assess Geno Smith, whom he supports. You are a raging dumbass who has been told this by about 35 different posters.

Isn't his accuracy partially due to the system he is in? Didn't other air-raid QB's have exceptional accuracy #'s?

Yes, and until I looked at some of the statistical breakdown of his throws, I chalked a lot of that up to system. The throw chart that's been posted in here a few times shows that he isn't just completing a crazy number of short throws. His accuracy shows up at all three levels in all three zones of the field.

It's also just not about completion percentage. It's about ball placement, too.

That's something you'll see in the scouting reports. If you read several of them, you'll notice a lot of talk about his ability to put the throw where it HAS to go (not just where it can be caught). That's tough to teach.

Oh, you'll also read about his clean and consistent throwing mechanics in those scouting reports (a key to his accuracy).

Smith played in a pro style offense as a sophomore and still completed 65% and like a 25/5 TD/INT ratio.

Scott Wright from NFLdraftcountdown.com on Twitter. Mini Chiefs rant.

I don't understand the thought-process of KC fans who want take Joeckel at #1 and let Branden Albert walk as a free agent. How big of an upgrade would Joeckel be over Albert? Not much short-term and the o-line is the least of KC's problems. And it REALLY doesn't make sense to re-sign Albert to a huge young left tackle contract and move him inside to guard. Also, moving Albert inside to guard would displace Jeff Allen or Jon Asamoah, who were both recent Top 100 picks. Not an ideal situation for KC but they are going nowhere without a quarterback and they have their pick of the litter. There is no sure-thing like Luck or RG3 so Kansas City needs to decide on the QB they like most and pull the trigger. Finally, for KC fans who want to wait until early Round 2 for a QB keep in mind that is where Andy Reid took Kevin Kolb.

awesome...someone did 'research ' for runkc

Geno's play against OU is mind bottling...6 min mark: throw from the endzone, turns his back to the field, turns around and locates a WR, fires a 40 yard strike between 3 defenders while under pressure...in the 4th quarter, against the #8 pass defense in college

it is the pass of the year in college....

So why did Tyler Bray all the sudden start falling so far in the mocks? Because of his alleged character flaws? The majority of 2014 mock drafts have him mocked as going #1 in what they consider to be an "improved QB class." Is that 1 additional year really potentially the vital to his growth as a player? Is it a character flaw thing or a talent thing that has pushed him down so low?

Luck went 11-2.
Griffin went 10-3.

Geno went 7-6.
Barkley went 7-4.

I'm taking a beating on PowerMizzou for stumping for Geno. But I'm going to keep it up.

Side note:

Apparently, my old buddy Russ Lande was on 610 this morning and claimed he graded Geno as the 6th or 7th most accurate QB in this draft after watching his tape.

Oh, Russ... :spock:

This has to be trolling. Absolutely has to be.

Next year's roster's going to be Vick, Flynn and Kolb, eh? Because afterall, the guys in charge once had something to do with those guys.

(Lets ignore the fact that the only thing they all 3 have in common is that they were either fired, traded or allowed to walk away from the team for nothing in return by Reid or Dorsey).

Luck went 11-2.
Griffin went 10-3.

Geno went 7-6.
Barkley went 7-4.

Only damn reason.

That and the fact that Barkley just isn't that good.

I know it's all kumbayah and what not in here when we're fighting off the Joekelytes, but quit trying to ride Geno's coattails with Matt Schau....I mean Barkley.

See Mark Sanchez, Carson Palmer, Tebow, Jamarcus Russell,,yadda yadda yadda...

Teams are getting smart and realizing these QB's aren't worth the high picks anymore. Well, the Raiders probably didn't learn so expect Geno Smith in Black and Silver.

That's why Blaine Gabbert, Jake Locker, and Ryan Tannehill all went in the top 10, amirite?

They are more examples, yes. Thank you. DOlphins, Titans, Jaguars. BAHAHAH! Gimme a break! Real teams don't reach for Quarterbacks.

I wouldn't say that Barkley is awful... but he is "maxed out" physically. He could be a fine game-manager sort, but I don't think he's likely to be a stud/franchise guy (unless he turns into Drew Brees).

BEAUTIFUL highlight reel of Geno found by Pestilence. Yes, haters, it's a HIGHLIGHT reel.

Good thing there's 2 QBs in this draft that are worth the #1 pick, then.

ChiefPassesALot 01-15-2013 02:11 PM

It's a college highlight reel. Even Tim Tebow had one of those. Let's face it. Even RG3 wasn't worth what Washington gave up for him!

Next year's roster's going to be Vick, Flynn and Kolb, eh? Because afterall, the guys in charge once had something to do with those guys.

(Lets ignore the fact that the only thing they all 3 have in common is that they were either fired, traded or allowed to walk away from the team for nothing in return by Reid or Dorsey).

Dumbest !@#$ing logic, ever.

One or the other smart guy. Obviously, not both. Wanting someone, but still being able to see that it probably won't happen isn't hard to differentiate. I haven't seen anyone anywhere who has Geno going first. Why would I expect Reid or Dorsey to be any different...

Or Andrew Luck, RG3, Andy Dalton, Cam Newton, Sam Bradford (who is only questionable because of the size of the contract, which is no longer an issue under this CBA), Matt Ryan, Joe Flacco, Matthew Stafford, Jay Cutler

If he's in the right situation, he could help a team out. I just want a guy with more upside, and for me, that's Geno.

You are naming the pro style QBs now. Aside from Newton and RG3. We a REAL QB. Not some running flash in the pan QB like Newton or RG3.

ChiefPassesALot 01-15-2013 02:14 PM

WE need a qb how can pass and pass a LOT!

Bradford didn't operate primarily out of the spread?

ROFL

YourChiefConcern 01-15-2013 02:16 PM

I'd like Geno, but I don't know if he's worthy the #1 pick....what about Barkley?

Do you have reading comprehension issues?

Geno Smith, and remember follow along, IS NOT, repeat, IS NOT A RUNNING QB.......PERIOD

Mult troll?

That was a list of guys taken just in the first round who certainly were worth their draft position and an early-round pick.

There isn't a "running" QB in consideration at the top of the QB list.
