It's Ludacris. Oh, wait. It's Jay-Z.

I still would rather have Geno Smith than ****ing Alex Smith that is all there is to it. Geno Smith has upside that Alex Smith doesn't have. He would have been worth the second round pick. If he fails we still would have next years second round pick available for better options and we could take one in the first round also in next years draft.
I saw good and well what Geno Smith is capable of from college he may may not turn out in the pros but I'd sure give him a shot. If he is a slow learner then take the time with him. He is going make a pretty good quarterback or he wont. It's Ludacris go 30 years neglecting the quarterback in the draft with trying to get a top prospect.
I think Geno Smith needs to have maturity before he starts to get it but if he can mature and grow then he may turn out ok. Who knows right? You nor I know how he is going to turn out in the NFL. It's any ones guess including the scouts. They may know more than I do but watching him play quarterback at WC was pretty impressive and if anything that is what I'd go by.
