As I've said before... there isn't a doubt in my mind that Reid goes with Geno Smith. I could see Holmgren, on the other hand, going after a guy like Tyler Wilson or Aaron Murray. That's not an insult to Holmgren. He can get these guys to be cerebral QBs in ways no other coach can. But I bring Holmgren up partly because I have a man crush on him, but also because I think when you contrast his style with Reid's, you can see why Reid goes with Geno.
Reid wants athletes he can turn into technical perfectionists who make good decisions. Holmgren goes for QBs he can mold mentally.
