His ceiling is probably Alex Smith.

Geno is a single read QB. He won't progress beyond where he's at until he learns to read defenses. There has never been a top 5 single read QB in the history of the game.
Alex is better at reading, but is too slow. Think of someone who moves his lips as he reads. His legs make up for it to a degree, some of that is offset by average pocket presence -- not having a good intuition about when to run and when to stay put. He's good enough to win with if surrounding talent is very high. I don't think he gets intrinsically better at this stage of his career -- he might have a few games like the Colts game, but clearly that was an outlier performance.
