Why Geno Smith fell in the draft
I've seen a couple other posts about this... but this probably deserves it's own thread considering how many hours we've wasted arguing about the guy. This is the first article I've seen theorizing why Geno fell in the draft. Time will tell whether it's accurate.

Geno is the new 2nd round Ryan Leaf.

I'm saying that in all likelihood, it worked out more in the Chiefs favor to use that pick on Trent Green than it would have to use it on Drew Brees. That's my opinion, not something I have any way of proving.

That is also why I think the term is way overused. There are only about 4 franchise QB's in the NFL. |

Wow, not only am I apparently now in prison, but I'm so heinous that I'm on lockdown 23 hours a day.

There was talk of you guys drafting him with your first round pick. I was pissed off when that didn't happen.

2014 QB class looks to be 50x as good as this one. 4 QB's look like first round picks.

With EJ Manuel being the top QB drafted? Yup. I can wait one more year.

We've got Bray as a developmental guy. I imagine folks would love it had we drafted him in the 3rd.

Actually Brees and Green put up similar numbers in the same year. Brees wasn't as good during the 2001-2003 years, but that makes sense she was a pup in the league. But 2004 and 2005, he was the same as Green. Then of course we knew what happened when he went to Nawlins.

Nothing is going to change my mind that it is best to pick a QB from the draft than going after retreads like the Chiefs continue to do years after years. I'm all ready disappointed we traded two 2s for Aids Smith. They took the hope away before the draft.
