If all of this new information is true, then it makes a bunch of sense.

Really, all we outside prognosticators can do is look at the tape and watch the combine. It's not like we have access to all the information. Based on the tape, I would have taken Geno at 1.1. No shame in admitting it. At least I advocated for a position and put in the work to back it up. People here are renowned for coming out of the woodwork after the fact and sniping those who actually do their own "work." **** em.

There's nothing wrong with having an opinion that turns out to be wrong because you didn't have access to all of the pertinent information. It's just nice to keep the fact that you don't have access to all the pertinent information in mind when you decide how forcefully you want to argue that position.

No, we flat out passed on Flacco and Rodgers. No question. Our GMs were bright enough that they thought we couldn't use a talented QB, despite the fact we had a crusty-ass vet (like the Packers did with Favre at the time) and NOTHING at QB in the case of the 2008 draft.
Straight up **** ups.

A project, Andy "I think I can fix you" Reid didn't want, is not flattering.

"Rodgers/Flacco had red flags. Geno Smith had red flags. So that means Geno could turn out like Rodgers/Flacco!"
That's the gist of what this thread is pumping out. Locker/Gabbert/Ponder/Quinn/Russell etc, etc were also 1st round QB's who had red flags.

Wow, not only am I apparently now in prison, but I'm so heinous that I'm on lockdown 23 hours a day.
