I still like Geno a lot and I'd still give him the combine, workouts and pro days to prove that his work with Weinke has given him the ability to drive the football without sacrificing his accuracy. Geno could still take the 1.1.

But I'd have to see him do that first. If Geno can't get his footwork thing fixed, his ceiling is Phillip Rivers. And since the argument right now seems to be "well Mario Williams never won shit!" well neither has Rivers.

And one of the interesting things about this QB class is that I really do think it's as deep a class as we've seen in a very very long time. With the rules making it easier to get credible QB play from guys that are merely good QBs, it may be time to take some chances and get one that falls.

I've been pretty open-minded throughout this process. I think I've shown some strong arguments in favor of Alex Smith, though he's not the guy I'd prefer. I've been open about Geno's flaws. Being open-minded about this stuff should make one's opinions count for more, at least it does in my eyes.

And here I have to concede that if the draft were held tomorrow and Clowney were in it, I'd have to go with Clowney.

Boom!
