If Geno was as good as you think every single media entity would be hying him up like Luck. The real scouts aren't as enamored with him as you are which is why you are seeing constant reports about no QB at the top spot right now.

Real scouts or idiotic draftniks/sports guys that have probably seen as much Geno as the casual fan?
And don't start the Kiper bullshit because I'll point you in the direction of where he said Jamarcus Russell was on the same level as Elway.
And I'll also remind you of the Manning/Leaf debate where most teams had them neck and neck. (I believe Marty once stated that they had Leaf over Manning.)
Sorry, but I've watched a lot of Geno and he's got a lot of the same skill set/tools/talent as the following guys:
Warren Moon and Aaron Rogers
Same size, same arm, same pocket presence, etc.
And, oddly enough, both of those guys got passed over in the draft. Moon for an entire draft in what has become the greatest draft snafu of all time and Rogers by 23 other teams - all of which who would love to have that chance back. (I still remember watching as the Chiefs pick came up and saying that I can't believe we will get a chance at Rogers. Green was at the tail end of his career and Huard was a stiff. It was like ****ing Christmas that this guy dropped right into our laps. And then they take a strongside linebacker that couldn't take on and shed blocks. **** you Carl Peterson.)
