You are obviously parroting some idiot and haven't watched a single game of Geno's, because, if you did, you wouldn't be spouting such utter nonsense.
And it's not a subpar QB class. It's actually pretty deep with a lot of guys who could be potential high ceiling type of players. Lots of sleepers as well. And Geno's senior year was nearly identical to both Griffin's and Lucks from last season. And he posted combine numbers that were among the best you've seen from a high level quarterback prospect. You sir, are a moron.
Stop being stupid and do some research before spouting off a bunch of inane blather.

By Illiteracy do you mean "ur" maybe you do to much spell check on a message board, or maybe you think i mean bored. Either way I am hoping you can guess the meaning. Maybe not though, Next time i will try to write at University level on a message board. What a freaking turd. As far as LT goes you sir need a lesson. This First round has 2 to 3 Franchise changers, guys who will anchor for 10 years or more. Not F'ing sleepers! Jesus you have been so mediocre for so long you put your hopes on sleepers an to compare Geno to Luck and RG3. You just showed how much you know about football or anything for that matter. Geno is about as good as James Franklin. Potential Potential, give me guys who can play, not ones with potential. YOur research is ridiculous, you forgot to add that RG3 was an academic all american who grad in 3 years, also one of the Best Hurdlers in the world and there combine results were not even close. RG almost a 40inch vert, Geno 33. RG 40, 4.4 Geno, 4.59. round up or down if you please but that difference in a 40 may as well be a mile. Arent you tired of drafting Potential, High-ceiling guy? What about "Best Player Available'!!!! Find one article from any scout that says collectively this is a strong QB class and post it for all of us.
Most Scouts View
In a year where the draft's quarterback class is considered weak, there is one player who has risen up and separated himself from the pack. West Virginia's Geno Smith has scouts convinced he is the only quarterback worthy of a first-round selection.
It's hard to argue with that notion because signal-callers are overvalued and overdrafted year in and year out. However, I have a hard time believing any team would select Smith inside the top five. I get that he can make all the throws and has a strong arm, but what I don't understand are his long stretches of sub-par play.
To be considered a top-five pick, you have to make the players around you better. And with Smith, I just don't see that. The pass-heavy scheme at West Virginia and the talent around him helped him become ia top-notch prospect.
On draft day, he better hope he goes to a team who has a few offensive pieces in place. If the Jaguars or the Raiders rush to the podium and make the second team All-Big 12 selection their pick, Smith may be doomed from the get-go.
