Is he forreal? Can we get this thread to be strictly Geno videos and Geno talk. I still have to break him down mechanics wise but I mean he sure is making the case for the Heisman. How do you guys feel about him. I have seen him ranked as high as 2nd on the QB board behind Barkley ( who I think will bust)
what do y'all think of Geno _________________

He's legit. I posted in the Eagles thread about him and I don't really feel like typing it out again...
But I will say this: He should be the #1 QB in the draft. And I'm going bold here....But I think he will be better than both Cam and RGIII.
His accuracy is second to none. Dude is completing 83% of his passes this year. And not only that, but he rarely ever makes mistakes, evidenced by his grant total of zero interceptions on the season. Doesn't try to force things that aren't there, and only looks to take off running if he has to.
I'd be psyched if the Eagles somehow ended up with him, but they'd have to be picking in the top 3 to do that, so I don't think it'll happen. However, I'd like to see him go to a talented team Like Kansas City or maybe even Arizona. _________________

I've had him as my #1 QB since before the season. While guys were riding the Logan Thomas hype train, I and a few others were driving the Geno Smith truth-hype train. He has great accuracy, no matter what throw it is. He goes through his reads. He runs well when needed. He has a great arm. He has very nice footwork. He does well when rolling out, and when under pressure. He also has solid mechanics. There's not a whole lot of questions about him left. _________________

I've had him as my #1 QB as well, but was questionable, before the season, as to whether or not he can be the #1 overall quality type pick. He's beginning to answer that question and right now it's YES. |

He reminds me of a Rich Man's Aaron Brooks (Saints version)
If Aaron had more accuracy and read defenses better. |

That deep ball of his has improved since then too. Having the quality of WRs he has helps, but he's gotten progressively better at putting those deep balls were only the WRs and not the DBs have a shot at it. _________________

I think he's the #1 QB, but I also think he's "only" a mid-first prospect. His accuracy, while good, needs to improve for him to become a top-10 pick IMO.
That said, I think he's a better prospect than Tannehill was, and he went pretty high... |
