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

Jeez, I had the misfortune of sampling some WIPE board fodder during an intrawebz search, and had to go grab an ibuprofen.

Geno Smith 6'3, 220lbs. West Virginia

Now, we get to Geno Smith. The consensus "top QB" in the draft if you just pay attention to mock drafts. If Smith had finished the season the way he started, I'd probably be all about drafting him. However, I have a tough time trusting any players from the Virginia area. They always seem to come out with immense talent, but don't have the maturity or the smarts to stay out of trouble. I worry about the attitude and culture from that talent base which seems to have be a "me first" kind of attitude. His performance in Austin left a bad taste in my mouth after he was talking trash with fans and UT recruits as the game was being played.

Looking at his season as a whole, it seems like he got a taste of success during the early part of the season and let it get to his head, which then affected the rest of his year. I've seen Smith and Wilson play about the same amount over the last couple years. I saw Wilson more last year and Smith a bit more this season. I think the total package that Wilson presents is much better overall than the athletic ability offered by a Geno Smith selection. I wonder if some of the scouting done on Smith isn't the mind playing tricks on people. There seems to be this thought pattern that Geno Smith is this year's RGIII... and he's not. Smith is not a Vick/RGIII type QB. He's mobile, but not a home run hitter. Think of him as a Steve Young type when it comes to mobility.

Overall, I think Geno Smith is NOT a player worth the #1 overall selection. I worry about his game translating because even though some reports say he can make all the throws, I haven't seen what I'd want out of my franchise QB when it comes to the intermediate routes. Smith in the first round would be a bigger gamble, in my opinion, than Dontari Poe was at #13. I honestly think someone is going to get burned with this guy because of the RGIII comparisons and people expecting Smith to be a different player than what he actually is.

Did Geno Smith piss in some peoples' cheerios or something?

The last thing we need is a player with comparisons to Steve Young....GOGTFO

I really think we need to avoid all players from the Maine area in the future.

Y'know... Jovan Belcher and everything

Gotta watch out for them gang signs brotha!

That actually wasn't a bad article. He was at least level-headed about the criticisms...

At least until he said taking Smith would be a bigger risk than ****ing DONTARI POE...

Not really, because his whole premise is that Geno is the "athletic" running type of quarterback that isn't on the same level as Griffin as evidence by this moronic statement:

I think the total package that Wilson presents is much better overall than the athletic ability offered by a Geno Smith selection.

The ****ing guy doesn't have a clue as Geno is a pocket quarterback first and foremost with the athletic ability to extend a play only when it's absolutely required. (Again, see Aaron Rogers at the same stage for a realistic comparison of talent, skills, athleticism and game.)

The guy says he watched Geno this year and then makes his arguement based on the complete opposite of what type of quarterback Geno actually is. The ****ing guy is a liar and obviously hasn't watched jack shit.

I'm very excited about Geno Smith joining the team.
