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 #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

Unless Austin is BPA with out second round pick, I wouldnt pick him as we already have enough weapons as it is, especially if wé keep Bowe and Boss.

Austin does possess something that we don't have in the wr corps and that's speed. Baldwin and Bowe are big physical wrs and DMC is not nearly the playmaker that Austin is.

yea, but we do have a need for more speed at WR

we also need a free safety, a MLB(R.I.P) and a cornerback

[Mr. Laz]

Austin with a nice adjustment on the poor pass

[WildTurkey]

Nice arm strength on that one and excellent adjustment by Austin to make the catch

[Hammock Parties]

Nice ball. Needed to be thrown sooner though.

Not a Terrible pass.. He can't throw into coverage like that at the next level though

[WildTurkey]

Chocolate pain unleashing the laser on the TD pass

KU safety was clueless, he should of been there on that throw.

late and behind a WR down the middle of the field generally gets blown up in the NFL

yeah. I wish I could see our chiefs team do this little bit though. sometimes guys are not wide open and you just have to throw it up and let your wide receiver make a play

Oh I agree he can't make that throw on Sundays. His timing was off and perhaps he's a little cocky facing that KU defense. He did follow it with a laser for a TD though so he made up for it

Yep, TD slant/cross pass was sharp

[suds79]

okay I've come to the conclusion I don't care if we need CB more than wide receiver. If Tavon Austin is there in a second and assuming we took Geno in the first, I would love to see that combination.

[Hammock Parties]

There is not a CB or a DL in the draft more valuable than a guy like Tavon Austin.

yep

Bowe and Baldwin on the outside
DMC and Austin in the slots
Geno Smith under center
Charles in single back set

sounds like a pretty dangerous passing set to me
