I think Barkley is very intriguing, especially since secondroundstats proved he was the same guy as he was last year. And right now my interest for EJ Manuel has skyrocketed. I had questions on whether he could throw the ball well too, but he was very good throwing the ball at the combine. If we choose to go the route of Alex Smtih and take a developmental QB, I want EJ. |
Just watched Matt Barkley's chalk talk.
Basically same show as Geno Smith. Shown a play. Play is erased. Interview continues and then asks him to draw it up. Struggled with the terminology a little bit. Struggled to replicate the play as it was originally drawn up (though he was asked to flip it, which is tough). |

TBH, with Barkley's arm strength, he's going to have to become Brees like in his decision making and accuracy. I'm not sure I see that, but I also don't know that his arm is that weak.
I am trying to like Manuel. But watching that offense this year, it's really hard. He's a guy I'd love us to take if we had a starter already, say the Texans situation. My thing about Barkley is, how much more upside does he have? I think that is whats always been the problem with USC QB's. They've played around great talent and they're pretty well coached (arguable with Barkley) and they just don't have much more space between where they are and their ceiling. Thats why I'd take Smith at 1, in that I think he showed this weekend that with the mechanical fixes, his arm strength has the potential to be pretty stellar, paired with his accuracy he could be lethal. |

It was basically a carbon copy of Geno's interview. I thought Barkley showed well, despite struggling with drawing up the play. |
I want Geno Smith at #1.
If not Smith, then Barkley is an acceptable consolation prize. Pretty much anything else is a no-go for me. |

Barkley has fans on Chiefs Planet. Many posters (like me) consider Barkley also worthy of the #1 overall pick. Shit dude, you're around here all the time. You should know this. What's this, "You guys are gonna hate me..." garbage? |
O must be trolling. Alot of us that get accused of only wanting Geno are big on Barkley as well.

(Yes, I know USC was pretty pedestrian this year by their standards, but my point remains) |

Second, I was basing that on a post right before, not any of you guys. I'm not spot trolling at this point PGM, you always call me on it when I do, working on changing my game. |

I prefer Geno also, but if Reid prefers Barkley, I will trust the Walrus. I just far prefer a QB at No. 1. If that's either of those guys, I can deal with it (especially if Barkley surprises with his arm strength like he surprised with his height). |

I shudder to think what a truly lazy QB who relies entirely on his natural abilities would look like in that situation (Russell/Mallet/Vince Young/Bray/etc). WOnder if they'll televise those. |
