I'm going to make a lot of you ill with this thread
I wanted Geno Smith as much as anyone here. But I'm an it is what it is guy. So I started last night trying to find some kind of bright side to this whole fiasco. I've written the following piece, and am looking forward to being skewered for it.

This is pretty much how I feel about the pick-up. I'm banking on Andy Reid's pedigree with QB's to continue the upward directory of Alex Smith's career. His last two years have been quite good. Sure I would like to see him throw for more yards but his TD/INT ratio is good and he has proven to come up big in the end of ball games the last couple of years. In reality his ability to protect the ball in itself will improve this team drastically.
Wish the compensation was much lighter but overall I like the pick-up. It is apparent our front office isn't high on this years draft class of QB's. Flame away!!! |

I think smith will be a very good qb. Iirc, he had a very good game just before he got hurt. I'm not, though, happy with the pick we gave up to get him.

However, if Smith comes in and performs well, nobody will worry about the 34th pick. |

Might as well give him a chance. He isn't going anywhere, nor is Dorsey and Reid. To continuously stay pissed about it wont change those facts. He might be better than we think, or he could be more of the same. We wont know for sure until a year or two from now.

So you're saying he's clutch on a 3rd and 3 situation in field goal range, when he's a known check down machine because he actually passes for a TD in a running situation?
That's called catching the defense napping. Alex Smith is the antithesis of clutch.
