Geno Smith fans roll call
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: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=5388 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 #1:
Spoiler!
GIF #2:
Spoiler!
GIF #3 (My favorite):
Spoiler!
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 Last edited by RealSNR; 01-04-2013 at 12:32 PM.. |

Murray will be a nice consolation prize for someone in the second round.

I like Murray, and think with good coaching, he can realize his potential. But he's far too inconsistent in that program with the morons running things there to ever achieve #1 overall status. I just want to know what kind of ****ing drugs zilla takes to come up with the stupid shit he says. I'll give him credit, though. He is, far and away, the most articulate dumbass I have ever come across.

Because what I see in Murray is that he plays in a very difficult QB offense in a very difficult conference. I think NFL scouts are a lot more forgiving of that, and you can't knock on a guy too much for being inconsistent as a Sophomore or even an early Junior. What I see is that he has tremendous fundamentals and great arm strength, and that he looks like he can run an NFL offense as opposed to reading off of a script. That's the reason why I was asking what the knock on him is that he wouldn't be a legit top-tier prospect? Because in Geno Smith, you have a tremendous passer who hasn't proven he can play under center. In Barkley, you have a good QB with all the tools but with arm strength limitations. And much as I like Tyler Wilson, if he's trying out for a job, he's not exactly wow'ing anybody. Now, if you think Georgia's offensive scheme is messed up and that's limiting Murray's potential, that's something I don't know. You would and I trust what you're saying. I was pointing out Murray as a potential #1 only if he continues to improve. |

Probably won't since there will be three locks in the first round: Barkley, Smith, and Wilson. And, he'll likely return to try to chase a NC, in addition to trying to improve his draft stock. |

I don't think a guy whose has outstanding pocket footwork is going to have any problem learning to take snaps under center.

If this were the 2012 Draft class, it would be Andrew Luck, RGIII and then everybody else. |

This is RG3 all over again.
We all love the guy's talent, think it's possible but then he plays himself out of reach for us. Might as well start to focus on some of the other options the way I see it. |

They're not Luck-level prospects, but they're really, really good. |

I like Geno Smith. I'd draft him in a heartbeat. But that does take a leap of faith that he can operate in an NFL offense, given that his system is extremely friendly to a QB. I didn't have that question with Luck or RGIII. For Smith to succeed, he has to be able to operate in a more traditional pro style offense.

RGIII played in a system that was every bit as QB friendly as Smith does. JFC, where do you come up with this shit? Do you think you'll just throw shit out there and no one will question it?

I really like Geno Smith. But he's not RGIII. I gushed over RGIII because I thought he could become a more giftedly athletic version of Ben Roethlisberger. Meaning... you don't have to have to be perfect to mentally run an NFL offense. You can use your legs to buy extra time. For Smith, you have to take a leap of faith that he can operate in a more traditional pro style offense. I believe he can, but that risk makes him anything but a consensus pick. Don't get me wrong. Both are terrific top 10 prospects. But they're not the #1's you gush over. |

Aside from Geno's passing (obviously), I loved his footwork.
