Everyone knows Geno is a studious, filmroom junkie. With a year of coaching and staying injury-free, he could come out in 2014 and destroy fools.

As I've stated before, there is no way that the Chiefs take Smith at #1 overall and even sit him for a game, barring injury.

It would be a P.R. disaster and he'd be labeled a bust from Day One. I doubt he'd recover from it.

If they choose a QB at #1, he HAS to start on opening day. There are no other options.
