Schefter- "Barkley Late first-round pick" Smith scouts "aren't completely wowed"
ESPN's Adam Schefter stated on Mike & Mike Wednesday morning that USC QB Matt Barkley is viewed around the NFL as a "late first-round pick."
Schefter cited a relatively weak incoming quarterback class as reasons for Alex Smith and Michael Vick to "absolutely" have strong offseason markets. Smith is a trade candidate, while Vick is expected to be released after the Super Bowl. Per Schefter, Heisman finalist Collin Klein is viewed as a "late-round pick," and scouts "aren't completely wowed" by West Virginia QB Geno Smith. Barkley showed underwhelming arm strength as a college senior and was interception prone. We wouldn't be surprised if he fell to the second round http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/7421/matt-barkley |

There will be a combine superstar that will emerge as the number 1 it happens every year. Could very easily be Smith...

smith did the same thing to oklahoma that RG3 did...he just has the worst d in the country, so they lost
his 4th quarter ass raping of the 8th ranked pass defense in the country should 'wow' anyone who isn't a ****ing dill hole... his pass from his own endzone, with the pocket collapsing, between 3 defenders, is as clutch and fine a pass as any QB threw this year...if that doesn't 'wow' you then you should off yourself along with black reerun...

Barkley is gonna move up the board a bit after the combine. Teams will love him after they interview him.
Don't see him going in the late first with so many QB needy teams. Probably teens. |

I bet Barkey's stock drops after his combine workout.
He'll probably run a 5.1 40 or something shitty.

When youre the Chiefs there s no such thing as reaching for a QB. The more desperate this team is to get that future elite QB the better if you ask me.

This last scenario is gradually becoming my favorite one. Maybe trading the top pick to someone head over heals in love with Jarvis Jones and use the later round one pick or our top 2nd on, say, Murray. |

I don't get this value shit.
You know whats valuable? A franchise QB. Those tend to be drafted pretty early in the draft. Why risk trading down and missing out on your guy? If you like the guy enough to draft him at say 4 or 5, then for **** sake, draft him at 1. |

LOL, smash another window for me, because I agree with him.
That's fine. I'm not a Geno or bust guy. At least not yet. |

Matt Barkley becomes less & less intriguing to me by the day.
I've simply had my fill of weak armed Chiefs QBs. It's as simple as that. Right now give anybody over Barkley. Geno, Wilson, Bray, Glennon. I just want to see something different. |

With all this draft stuff popping up, lets play a little game. Name this player, based on his pre draft analysis.
POSITIVES: Athletic passer with the physical skills and mental intangibles needed to lead a franchise at the next level. Quickly sets up in the pocket, sells ball fakes and technically very sound. Poised under the rush, steps up to avoid defenders and works to keep the play alive. Patient, buys time in the pocket and waits for receivers to come free. Does an excellent job with his reads and natural looking off the safety. Does not make mental errors and throws the ball away rather than toss the errant pass. Times the short and intermediate throws well, as receivers rarely wait for the ball out of their breaks. Outstanding vision and immediately spots the open receiver. Possesses a quick release, live arm and zips the outs or gets the ball downfield. Throws with touch. Sits in the pocket and takes a big hit in order to get the pass off. Fleet-footed and picks up yardage with his legs when necessary. NEGATIVES: Though accurate, lacks top pass placement and has receivers extending vertically to pull the ball out of the air. Must improve his accuracy down the field. Lacks top footwork releasing the ball off a three step drop. Lacks pocket stature. |
