To say they are the same guy is intellectually dishonest.

Bray was also mocked in the first for months, you'll recall.
You can keep speaking to an argument I didn't make if you'd like, but I'm not sure what you're accomplishing.
I didn't say they were the same guy at all; never have. I've said this several times now - Geno's unquestionably the 'safer' of the two. Geno has a middle ground where he could end up an average NFL starter; it's pretty damn unlikely that Bray hits that mark - he's going to be a very good NFL quarterback or he's not going to be in the league, IMO. I don't see him hanging out for 10 years as a marginal, 1 and done style QB.
A competent NFL quarterback has a great deal of value and it's that marginal value that made Geno a more attractive option than Bray. But when the Chiefs got Alex Smith, a guy that's already good to go as a competent NFL QB, well that marginal value became redundant for them.
To say that Bray, who was being mocked as a potential 1.1 at the end of last season, doesn't have the upside of Geno Smith is far more intellectually dishonest than anything I've said in this thread.
