Maybe with footwork he can come close but i still don't think he'll have that strong of an arm as rodgers or the elites in the NFL

I thought BlackBob got banned?

Aaron Rogers type arm? Eh, thats really pushing it.

Like I said, I think Rodgers arm is stronger...but I don't think the gap between the two is as big as DJ would make it out to be.

Geno can make any throw with plenty of zip.

I might be inclined to retract my top ten comment and push it back to top 15 as it sits...with work on his lower body, there is no reason to think he can't jump up one group and be in the op ten because I don't think there is a big difference between his arm and Rodgers'.

Show me te guys on that list that CLEARLY have a stronger arm than Geno.

I don't think there are more than maybe 5 more that I didn't highlight.

I would add Freeman and RG3.

Luck has a pretty good arm too

Tannehill, Rodgers, rg3, freeman, Luck and Gabbert are the guys that I see as having arm strength that is at a similar level to Geno.

I hadn't really given it alot of thought, but looking at that list, there aren't a whole lot of guys in the NFL that have cannons. They all have good arms, but the Staffords, Kaeps Culters are rare.

i think it is a pretty big gap between the 2. I think geno's got a strong arm but i don't think it's much stronger than barkley's or wilson's. I've seen barkley make some of the same throw's geno's made.

the NFL elites are just a completely different animal. Not saying geno can't get up in the discussion but i don't think he'll match the others people have spoken of.

Where's Cassel on that list? :harumph: :bolt:

agree with that list except rodgers and luck.. Both those guys could give stafford and cutler runs for their money on arm strength.

That's what I'm trying to show...that Geno has the potential to be just outside the elite arms in the league with some tweaking before and after the draft.

Weinke and Reid can take care of that.

When did Chris Weinke become a Chiefs coach?

IMO, arm strength is a little overblown at times. Yeah, you have to have it, to an extent, but it isn't the end all be all.


Now you can't be Pennington, that just won't cut it.

I think Geno could, with the lower body tweets and better mechanics, easily get into the upper half, but he just doesn't have the physical skill some of those guys do.
