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

A QB will emerge as the favorite as the months go by. The only question is, which qb will it be.

Also, WHAT system to put that QB in. For Instance: If Geno Smith is the guy, you pretty damn well pair him with a OC that is going to utilize his talents in the correct manner.

Now that's an excuse for losers of the 2-14 variety...

Yet you want to spend the #1 overall on a defensive player and trade for Matt Flynn.

That is the same thing this team has done for decades and yet you still want to continue with that plan.

But it's simply not that easy and the Chiefs aren't even close. The road is much longer and tougher..will require a few drafts without major mistakes.

You start with the QB position and build the team around him.

Or are you still watching 1980's football?

They've got two good tackles and a promising interior offensive line.

They've got the second best running back in the NFL.

They've got a very good receiver in Bowe.

They've got three top ten (11) young players on the defensive line.

They've got very good rush ends in Hali and Houston.

They've got a very good ILB in Johnson.

They've got a very good CB in Flowers.

They've got a potentially very good safety in Berry.

And all these guys are young, but have experience.

A horrible attitude generated by Pioli, a horrible game plan and accountability by the coaching staff and the worst QB play in the NFL has held this team down.

1 of those top DE's is a free agent
our 1 good receiver is a free agent.
our 1 good tackle is a free agent. winston sucks, stephenson did ok.
our punter team MVP is a free agent.

another 1 of those top de's is slated to get 14millon this year. he very well may be cut if a restructure can't be agreed upon.

Our #2 corner.. we'll we don't have 1 so teams just throw away from flowers and they march down the field.

Our other ILB sucks so we have to bring that stud Safety to the LOS to help stop the run. Which leaves our #2 safety back to cover and he can't, and he can't tackle either so we can't swap the 2.

Our 2 good rush linebackers just vanish against an average O-Line.

QB is not our only need. but it is a need. so which is the biggest?

That's the other side of the coin. If the 2013 qb class sucks so bad, what will be said about the 2014 class, which is shaping up to gargle salty testicles.

The same things that were said about every QB class aside from the 2012 class.

Wrong wrong wrong. Multi-year rebuilds are a myth, period.

Plug in Matt Flynn or Geno Smith, subtract Bowe and KC offense still sucks.

Yes, I'd take M T'eo. Since Jackson and Dorsey didn't workout, Star would be a good choice to address the D-line. Some talent on D but no depth and some huge holes in the starting lineup at S opposite Berry.

He looks like a future All Pro. Can't do much better than that with a #1 overall pick. As I said, I'd draft Star, the best WR in round 2 and the BPA at QB in round 3. That way, I'd get two highly rated players with my early picks, some QB that can keep the seat warm for the 2014 draft...hit on a few late round picks - good UFA work.

I'm trying to make this roster better, you're trying to fill a need with a reach. I don't know this QB class sucks, but I'm pretty sure it does and Geno Smith is mediocre (okay, but nothing special) like Chad Henne. If you'd rather have me use Chad Pennington I'd be glad to since I think Geno Smith is on that level as far as where he'd rate as a prospect (not comparing their styles, just their value. Geno Smith is presently rated around 25th best player in the draft looking at several draft guys (I don't call them experts) to guage his value. I woudn't reach for that with this #1 overall.

So you are in the opinion that the WR's make the QB, not the QB makes the WR's?

So Eric Decker and Demarius Thomas are making Peyton Manning look great?
So Tom Brady is great because he's throwing to the All Pro's like Branch?

Sigh.

So you wanna put more picks into the Dline, and then a WR, when you have no QB on your team?

Is this Scott Pioli I'm talking to?

It's absolutely hilarious how after all these years of Dlineman that anyone can recommend Star on this board or in this fanbase. ILB and Dlineman will not make a lick of difference for the next 2 seasons, a QB will make the difference immediately. Maybe he wont pan out in two three or four years but he'll come in and make an instant impact. If the best years of a normal QB's career are his first few, IE Mark Sanchez, then get going while the gettins good. Save your bullshit pick Star or Manti comments for another board.

This draft is 2000. That's this one. There are no good QB's in this one. Of course you never know when KC will finally find a Russell wilson type, but that's like finding a needle in a haystack.

Geno Smith that guy isn't ready to plug in and play like RG3 or Luck. He'll need some seasoning and he isn't that level of talent.
