I don't think any of the teams balked at Geno for how he is when things go well. It wasn't that they didn't think he could throw TD and win games, but rather how he handles throwing INTs and losing. That's why he fell. Geno could still end up like Rivers or Cutler. But I'm with you that it was reeruned how many teams with QB needs passed on the clear-cut best QB in the draft in favor of sub-par talents like Luke Joeckel and Eric Fisher. Those dudes are fine, and will be fine, but what the **** made Eric Fisher worthy of the first overall pick and not Geno?

I'm fairly certain that the Chiefs would have had to take Geno 1.1 in order to secure him. If we didn't trade for Alex Smith, everyone would have known we were going QB. The Jets would have traded up to either #33 with Jax or back into the first round for him.

Not that taking Geno 1.1 would have been bad. I would have JIMPd.

1.1 Geno Smith
2.34 Zach Ertz
3.63 Terrence Williams/Stedman Bailey/Keenan Allen


I think I'd have vastly preferred that draft. But I said that at the time, too.
