He doesn't match Gabbert's physical ability, not quite. But he gets more out of what he has than Gabbert. Size is similar. Smith isn't probably as straight-line fast, but he's much craftier in the pocket and uses his mobility better. Arm strength is an edge to Gabbert, but Smith's is still very good.
Biggest differences are pocket presence/accuracy. Smith has them in spades. Gabbert didn't.

I also watched all of Gabbert. Geno is ten times the QB that Gabbert was. When Gabbert decided to come out I knew it was based on where he would go on the draft, not on how well he would do in the NFL.
Gabbert pretty much sucked ass compared to Geno.
