Geno Smith fans roll call

[RealSNR]

NEW THREAD HEADER (11/17/12):

The list is gone. We will all be Geno Smith fans when he gets drafted by the Chiefs. For historical documentation's sake, I'll keep the list in a separate post on this thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=3314

WHY GENO SMITH?
If you're wondering if Geno Smith is right for you, check out this brilliant post by Saccopoo:

Next, we have a few GIFs you may be interested in from the Oklahoma game. Insane potential. These are the elite throws that very few QBs can make. What more can I say? Geno Smith can be a franchise QB in the NFL, and the Chiefs need to take a shot on him.

GIF #2:

GIF #3 (My favorite):

HOW DO WE GET HIM HERE?

Glad you asked. I posted this checklist earlier. It probably belongs in the thread header, and will be updated as the Chiefs close out their season and start a new chapter in their franchise story.

Preparing for Geno Smith's Arrival In KC Checklist

1. [X] Lose games and acquire the #1 overall pick
2. [X] Get Pioli and the Patriot Way cronies the **** out
3. [X] Hire new GM/coach

OPTIONAL (but highly recommended):
4. [ ] Re-sign/tag Bowe, who really wants to play in KC with Geno
5. [ ] Re-sign/tag Albert

I am excited to see what next year brings. Firings, Hirings, Franchise QBs roster turnover. out of all the negitives this year, but this soap opera will bring you right back next year

If that's your standard then Andrew Luck was a risk. A big risk.

**** dude.

The guy was 19 years old and was kicking the shit out of it as a sophomore. Smith was a Parade All-American as a prep, is a three year starter in two different systems and has put up exceptional numbers every year.

Tom Brady was a 6th round pick because nobody thought he could do it on the next level.

Half the league scouting directors and GM's thought Ryan Leaf was a better prospect than Peyton Manning.

What the **** are you wanting? You want to wait around for the next John Elway/Andrew Luck?

(And I think Smith has a lot of those qualities that those particular two individuals possessed. He's got as many tools for the position at his level as I've seen in the past two decades. I'm ready to take the chance on a guy and Smith is as good as a chance as I've seen that the Chiefs have had in a long, long time.)

Geno Smith has kicked ass every chance he's had and has improved his individual game every single year.

I'll take Smith, right here, right now. If he doesn't work out, so be it, but he's got the tools to be a stud. You never know how it plays out at the next level, but he's a guy you take that chance with.

Reps in the pass game, the accuracy, the release, the pocket presence, the prototype size, the arm, the leadership, the work ethic, the smarts.

No disrespect, but if you don't like Geno Smith as a prospect, especially as a Chiefs fan, whose QB situation sits between dire and destitute, then you are a ****ing moron.

So, who is operating Saccopoo's account this year and should they be investigated for kidnapping?

What the **** are you wanting? You want to wait around for the next John Elway/Andrew Luck?

If you sit around waiting on the next surefire stud QB, you miss out on the next:

Jim Kelly: Pick 14
Dan Marino: Pick 27
Ben Roethlisberger: Pick 11
Aaron Rodgers: Pick 24

Its a real shame I can only REP this post once.

Barkley at his best reminds me of marino and and at his lowest points looks like a rex grossman going deep. If I'm the chiefs either quarterback is a mandatory first pick if available. Personally I've seen enough jason cambell over the years to be petrified of choosing smith.

Who the **** are you?

Barkley = Marino and Smith = Cambell?

****ing idiot.

The guy who sees Geno Smith as a ****ing stud...

a guy who also sees the Chiefs with the chance to finally draft a ****ing stud at QB.

Perfect storm.

No Mark "Happy Feet" Sanchez. No Jimmy "Small Hands" Clausen.

They control their own destiny at this point and have a legitimate chance to draft a guy who has as much tools for the QB position as I've seen outside of John Elway and Andrew Luck and he's really close to both IMO.

Geno Smith can play the QB position.

Geno Smith is a ****ing QB stud. He's a gamer. He can put balls in receivers hands like nobody.

****. If we weren't coming off the Andrew Luck shit, this guy would be getting kudos and accolades all day long. Seriously, go watch those three passes in the OP. You go name me a QB who can hit that shit in every single game at any level. Do it. That's elite level skill set. The ****ing guy can play ball.

Draft this guy. Let's win some playoff games. Let's give this team a chance.

Sac found the guy he wanted. He had his (founded and legit) reasons for not wanting Sanchez or Clausen.

(Oh, and I imagine the tackles in this draft aren't exactly all-world. Who's even #1? Fluker from Alabama? I honestly have no idea)

Kid from Texas A&M is a legit prospect. Probably not wortha top 10 pick IMO, but I havent watched him very much. Could be a solid LT though.

Barrett Jones is a stud.

All American Freshman and All Conference at Guard as a sophomore. Moves to Left Tackle and earns first team All-America spot and wins the Outland Trophy as a junior. (Outland Trophy is given to the best lineman, regardless of position.) Then he goes to the Center position this year (why, after winning the Outland at left tackle, but whatever) and is killing guys from the pivot.

Has a degree in accounting (graduated with a 4.0 gpa) and is now working on his masters in the same.

That is ultimate versatility and talent and intelligence.

However, Geno Smith is the ultimate goal.

I'm really wondering if we need to start working Geno into our SOC message. One one hand it seems like we'd be over reaching but I have a horrible feeling they're gonna sign trade for Alex Smith, Mark Sanchez, Michael Vick or some other failed starter and say "We fixed the QB" and draft Mingo, Teo, or someone like that.

I get it that it's hard for some Chiefs fans to believe that, but IMO it is almost a certainty that the Chiefs will draft a QB, especially if they have the #1 overall pick.

This team has drafted Dorsey, Jackson and Berry in the top 5 recently. Look at where those guys have lead us. Sure Berry might become a hall of famer but there's no way the Chiefs pass on a QB early to draft a defensive player.

I swear I'd much much rather get Geno Smith tomorrow on this team, and I'm perfectly conscious of the risk, rather than to get Von Miller or JJ Watt.
