So what does he do? He executes his gameplan. He gets the wr screen out there half a second after he has the ball. He hits wrs in stride and on their proper shoulders. When time allows, he surveys the field. Given that he never runs and always has his eyes looking for someone when he has to scramble, I'm still wondering why anyone can possibly call him a 1-read qb.

Another thing I notice... I see people talking about how he can't handle pressure. Guess those folks just haven't watched much tape of him, because that was the thing that REALLY stood out (and one of the things that sold me, other than his Sam Bradford-esque accuracy) to me. Smith is very good at sliding JUST enough in the pocket to extend a play and get the ball out.

Honestly, I hope Geno rapes for the next 10 or more years. I hope Wilson rapes for the next 10 or more years. I hope Barkley rapes for the next 10 or more years.

Hell I hope Glennon does well too. Even Nassib.

Why? So all these ****ing dumbasses that keep saying this QB class sucks because they aren't last years class can be owned for years to come.

Of all those names I'd be the least confident in Barkley...

You know they'll still be saying we need better O-line help to protect our current QB. "Nobody could succeed behind this line." - True fan. :p

It really depends. He's so similar to Andy Dalton IMO. I think if he goes to a place like Arizona and they build up an OL and offensive staff, then he could be successful.

Like Dalton, he'll need help.

Dalton is a LOT better athlete... more nimble, better speed. Much better at moving the pocket.

I think the problem with Barkley is that he's as good now as he is ever likely to be. Which is solid, but not star-level QB play in the NFL.

Glennon also signed with the No. 2 sports agent (David Dunn). Dunn's guys don't get as much love from the ESPN group (Kiper, McShay, Mort, Schefter) as CAA guys, but they get a hell of a lot more than Select Sports Group's clients.

Wilson and Barkley are both with CAA. Watch. They are going to get pumped like crazy as time goes on... especially by the ESPN "gurus."

Tyler Bray signed with Tom Brady's agent and is working out with athletes performance.
Supposedly he received a 2nd round draft grade.

Agreed, though I think that Barkley is smarter than Dalton in some areas.

But we've seen QB's look better in good situations. Look at Cassel for proof. In New England he had help everywhere. In KC, Charles helped him so much, as did Bowe.

Stafford is a good example too. Calvin Johnson went HAM last year and caught TD's in double and even triple teams. This year CJ has a down year in the TD department and low and behold, Stafford's TD's went down as well.

Anyone that wants to draft a guard in the top 15 is ****ing moron.

Is it dumbass day at the True Fan corral?

Whatever, I don't care. Take a balloon and gtfo, tard.

It's going to be embarassing when the NFL Network shows the Chiefs draft party reaction and the true fans give us a horrible image because they will be pissed off that we selected a QB and not Joeckel. LMAO

They see good teams draft guards in the 20s and go to the pro bowl and think the reason is, the guard was the better player. No, the reason that guard looks all world is because Aaron Rodgers is holding the ball for 3 seconds before flicking a 40 yard dart to James jones for the major.

Meanwhile? Joe Thomas has been on a team that got double digit wins once. But keep drafting the line.

It's based on that, and based on taking a guard at 11.

Wilson's going to beat that ass at the Senior Bowl and you will see Wilson at 8 and Glennon at 38 by next month.

His size is overrated. His neck accounts for like 6 inches. ROFL

That's so he can eat from the tallest trees, where there is less competition among other species for food.

Not sure how it helps him be a better QB necessarily.
