I sometimes feel like you don't read much.
I've spoken to my reasons several times and so far the best response you or anyone else seems inclined to give is "well other guys don't do it" as though that's some sort of substantive retort. I. do. not. give. a. shit. if. past. quarterbacks. haven't. thrown. I've now said it 4 times, is it clear enough yet? Past quarterbacks weren't coming on the heels of the Luck/RGIII draft and having to prove their mettle in a fairly bunched QB class (that is regarded as a QB poor draft as it is). Geno is facing a set of circumstances that are relatively unique this year and he's going to do nothing more than a single pro day to not only separate himself from his QB peers, but guys like Joeckel, Moore, etc...; that's a massive error in judgment.

Yeah, but is it REALLY? I don't think so. I just think that LAST year was a freak occurrence so it makes THIS year seem like a 'weak' QB class. I think Geno would be the 3rd QB taken last year without a doubt, and I'd bet Wilson would go before Tannehill too, maybe-or at least damned close.

Yeah, you're off on that one Boss. The guy didn't go to the SR bowl, and it might work out for him. If he doesn't throw at the combine, he needs to really be questioned.

If Geno thinks he can not do anything after the end of the regular season he had and still go 1, he's either way off, or we are being told alot of wrong things.

And I'd say at this point that it's MUCH more likely we're being told a lot of wrong things. These guys and their agents don't generally just **** around when there's millions on the line... |

If he just decides to have a pro day, thats as close to doing nothing as he can get. IMO, shows he's a little afraid of pressure. |

Quite frankly, we could do this all day. You could take any individual piece of info and spin it for or against. We simply don't know what's going on. But when it comes right down to it, these guys' agents aren't stupid. They make the bank for a reason. Gotta trust that he's doing it right. |

Isn't this is a thread about the how he's doing at the IMG Academy? So he's clearly doing something.

I think Geno shows confidence in himself by NOT opting to throw at the combine.
He puts all the pressure on himself at his proday to go out and knock it out of he park. |

Confidence is knowing that he can do it and knowing damn sure that he can repeat it. You've now gone 'cult of Geno' twice in this thread alone. No, he doesn't have a top 10 NFL arm when his feel go wonky, that's just insanity. And no, refusing to throw at the combine is not because he's super-confident. This is the kind of crap that makes it more difficult to defend sensible arguments.
