Geno Smith vs Alex Smith - It's on.
It's on now. Geno Smith is probably going to be starting for the Jets this season.
Alex Smith will be the Chiefs QB for the forseeable future. If he's a success, we'll probably get five good years out of him. So who's gonna win more NFL games over that time period? Put your ten pounders on the table and make a vote Alex: 11 wins Geno: 8 wins Last edited by Hammock Parties; 12-30-2013 at 02:56 AM.. |

Throwing them in early can also destroy them. Their learning at an "accelerated rate" can be bad habits coming from running for their lives all the time. We may see that with Geno Smith this year.

And how are the Chiefs making it happen? How are we defining "it"?
They have absolutely zero chance of winning a SB in the foreseeable future, unless Bray somehow proves to be a winning Powerball ticket, since the odds of an UDFA being legitimate are **** and shit. Thus, I have to think that making it happen means playing competitive football, not winning a championship. Under this premise, there's no reason why a QB cannot be drafted in the first, with a stopgap like Alex Smith manning the ship until the "real" QB is ready. I don't think, for example, that EJ Manuel was drafted with the explicit expectation that he start year one, game one. It will end up being the case, but I certainly don't think that was a mandate. |

Bray is the real deal, and it was carefully planned that way/Dorseid nuthuggers.

Buddy Nix ran the draft this year, selected Manuel, and was fired two weeks after the draft.

No team is choosing a player in the first round that they don't believe will help immediately. Right or wrong, that's reality. |

Perhaps so. But I think there must be a middle-ground approach, based on individual players.
Gabbert, for example, was far too physically gifted to last until the second round. There was zero chance of that happening. However, he was far too raw to play in year one. Hell, Fisher in many ways defines such an approach. Here's a ****ing OT taken 1/1, but he's not even ****ing close to being ready to play LT in the NFL. So...he's starting at RT, a position that could be adequately manned by someone selected, at minimum, two rounds later. Yeah, I mean, he's helping...kind of. Barely. Sort of. |

Gabbert came out too early and was way over drafted. Same with Locker. GM's that were ultimately fired for trying to save their asses. There's your answer. |
