Geno Smith, why are people down on him
So I didn't get to see every single game that he played this year but did see most.
He not only seems to have all of the athleticism that you could want in a quarterback but also all of the intangibles in terms of leadership. On the radio both stations keep talking about him not being in the same class as luck or RGIII , my question is why not??? Here is my reasoning: We all know what type of difference a good coaching staff makes and how it transitions to the players ae. matt cassel with charlie weis WVA coaching staff is not very good, their offensive line was like Swiss cheese and their defense was possibly the bottom 5% in all of Division I football, putting him consistently in bad situations. If he had been playing for Alabama, Florida, ND, etc etc people would be touting him like luck or RGIII I didn't see anything this year from him that would make someone believe that he doesn’t have all of the tools to be an elite QB. Just on the wrong college team to put his draft stock at #1 |

Look, I like Geno, I think he deserves the #1 overall, and want to pick him, and believe that he may very well turn out to be BETTER than Luck or RGIII in the pros.
BUT, as far as a PROSPECT, he is NOT in the same class as Luck or RGIII. That doesn't mean SHIT though. Neither were Rodgers(who Geno Reminds me of), Brees, Roethlisberger, or pretty much anyone not named Peyton Manning. |

My point is that even as a prospect if you strickly look at his physical and leadership skills I don't see the seperation.
His biggest problem was the team he played for Luck had harbaugh and we all know how amazing he is with QB's. Look what he did with alex smith and Baylor was a well coached team with a very good offense Put him on either one of those two teams last year and people are viewing him completly different. |

He's just not that type of college player. And comparing him to Luck in college is just silly. You act like WVU is devoid of talent. They aren't. |
