If not #1, where?

I think Barkley and Smith really screwed up by not going to the Senior Bowl. Those guys don't have the potential of a guy like Matt Stafford for example. They aren't such a lock that they can just bow out imo. They have a lot to prove and I think it could backfire on them. The combine is more about interviews than anything else. As far as QBs go, the game film and the senior bowl are far more important combine imo.

Most top QBs dont go to the senior bowl. Both of these guys have played 4 years. They have shown all they can in a game setting. Its time for interviews and shit now.

I guess to put it bluntly, the tape isn't good enough for any Senior QB in this class to skip the senior bowl imo.

The senior bowl shows how they prepare, lead, and grasp a playbook. How well they are able to adapt and execute during a short period of time. For Geno, it would show how he handles snaps under center with better talent around him. Many feel Geno suffered from a lack of surrounding talent at WV and cite that as the reason for his struggles at times.

I think some could see skipping the senior bowl as a "red flag" as far as these guys go.
