He most definitely would have. He won 10 games with skill position players far less talented than his successor had, who managed to win 8 and 5 games. He was a concussion away from a BCS game at Missouri. He's 6'5" with good mobility, top notch character, and a very strong arm.
He obviously had severe system issues and pocket presence problems, but there is no chance even the Chiefs would have passed on him at #1 overall last year. He was a superior prospect to Geno in every way.
