NFL Draft Geno Smith fans roll call - Page 420

**RealSNR** · 12:32 PM

NEW THREAD HEADER (11/17/12):

The list is gone. We will all be Geno Smith fans when he gets drafted by the Chiefs. For historical documentation's sake, I'll keep the list in a separate post on this thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=3314

WHY GENO SMITH?
If you're wondering if Geno Smith is right for you, check out this brilliant post by Saccopoo:

Next, we have a few GIFs you may be interested in from the Oklahoma game. Insane potential. These are the elite throws that very few QBs can make. What more can I say? Geno Smith can be a franchise QB in the NFL, and the Chiefs need to take a shot on him.

GIF #1:

GIF #2:

GIF #3 (My favorite):

Spoiler!

HOW DO WE GET HIM HERE?

Glad you asked. I posted this checklist earlier. It probably belongs in the thread header, and will be updated as the Chiefs close out their season and start a new chapter in their franchise story.

Preparing for Geno Smith's Arrival In KC Checklist

1. [X] Lose games and acquire the #1 overall pick
2. [X] Get Pioli and the Patriot Way cronies the **** out
3. [X] Hire new GM/coach

OPTIONAL (but highly recommended):
4. [ ] Re-sign/tag Bowe, who really wants to play in KC with Geno
5. [ ] Re-sign/tag Albert

Andrew Luck maybe in a class by himself as I think he is a FHOFer. Geno Smith has a lot to prove before talk of HOF, but Andrew Luck at the rate he is going is a sure thing.

RGIII and Geno have similar ceilings as pocket passers. But RGIII has an elite athletic ability that makes him an elite QB prospect. Not that I'm saying I want a running QB, but the ability to use running ability as a last resort bailout or to be a guy you can roll out on a designed bootleg pass or who can use his legs to extend plays... from that perspective, it's unreal to think about what RGIII can do as he continues to mature as a pocket passer.

RGIII has the running ability of a Mike Vick to pair with his great passing ability.

Geno has the running/scrambling/pocket awareness ability more akin to Aaron Rodgers, IMO.

Has RGIII been able to stay healthy all season? Can you count on him to stay in a game in the playoffs?

I want Gino in a air raid type offense. I want the other team to respect our passing attack.

Geno Smith doesn't have to be better or as good as Luck or RGIII. Nope he has to be better than the defenses he plays against. 9ers didn't beat the Patrifarts because Kapnaki (sp) is better than Tom Brady. They beat the Pats because they could put more points on their defense & outlast a Tom Brady comeback. You got to have a guy who can make the big plays happen. Geno Smith can be that guy.

I know it makes people cringe... but still think Norv Turner as an offensive coordinator would be an unbelievable fit for Geno. There are offenses that require you to be an elite decision maker. Coryell is an offense that relies moreso on a QB who is deadeye accurate and has ability to get the ball vertical. Geno can fit that bill and it puts less pressure on him to have Brady-like quick decision making.

Logic? What is this?

I confused.

Cam Cameron runs the Coryell offense and he's available.

FTR, I wanted the Chiefs to draft Kaepernick and selected him for (bleh) the Faid in the CP Mock.

The Seattle Seahawks and Washington Redskins are running a "gimmick" offense on about 60% of their snaps. To lesser success, so are the Dolphins and Panthers.

People might as well get used to the fact that the pro game is changing. QBs are more ready than EVER to come in and play right away.

I don't want Norv Turner 1 heartbeat away from HC.

Focusing on GM & HC is what's important at this stage. There are/will be several quality OC options available.
