Although he threw short more than most guys in this draft, he also went down field more than most. Helped his ypa a bunch.

Check this out. He made a backhanded comment about Barkley (notice the quotes) in one of his many attempts to take jabs at the pro-Geno crowd.

Pretty cool comparisons.
"Weak" armed Barkley has the best completion % of the big 4 on passes over 20 yards.
Geno Smith is horrible under center, has the worst 3rd down completion% of the big 4 and his passes average less than 5 yards in the air. On the plus side when he throws mid-range he has very good accuracy 6-20 yards.
Wilson is below "average" on all passes over 5 yards.
Nassib seems to have the most consistency looking at accuracy/depth. |
