Barkley is surrounded by much better talent than Geno, and Geno is still out-performing Barkley. If Geno's gone, fine but if he's there, he's the easy pick over Barkley.

It's to early for me to say who is the better QB. I'd rather wait till have all the information and see them perform in their Bowls before i give my definitive answer on who's best. Right now, i prefer Wilson, but i don't KNOW that he's the better candidate.

I'd be okay with any of the three, but I think that for a franchise that hasn't taken a QB in round 1 for 30 years Barkley is the best bet.
I think his mobility is fine. He's not a statue. I think his arm strength is fine, but I really like his accuracy, decision making, and reputation as a high intangibles guy. Little chance of him 'Leafing out'. I think Matt Ryan is a good comparison. Don't tell me you wouldn't take Matt Ryan. |

Barkley hasn't had nearly the hype Leinart did but I could understand someone making a comparison there.

And then when you compare Barkley to Leinart, it's pretty clear that one is vastly more mature than the other.

This is a weird year for QBs for me. As long as the Chiefs get one of the 3, I'll be happy. But I feel like they're all so different.
Matt Barkley - Safest bet IMO. Seems like your standard pure pocket NFL passer. Average NFL arm. Not bad. But average. (but has Marqise Lee to throw to) Tyler Wilson - Tough. I think possibly strongest arm. (Who's Tyler throwing to?) Geno Smith - Overall highest upside skill set wise. (but has Tavon Austin to throw to) take your pick. |

Pocket Presence, ability to read a defense and accuracy is a must for whomever we draft.
if we get that and get rid of Cassel i'm a happy camper.

This past saturday i watched Smith miss wide open throws downf ield and nearly give the game away on a would be interception. The guy needs work. Once again, i don't see a clear cut winner yet.

i havent watched a lot of Barkley/USC but if he has all that i'd be ok with him and i'm anti-USC as far as QB's go.

You just described Barkley the same guy you bashed earlier in the thread you moron and your avatar looks like some Burger King knock off.

Sanchez started one year and left early. Not much in common other than the system.
Leinert-nothing in common other than the system. Lefty, even less arm strength, not nearly as accurate, not a dedicated student of the game, lack of film study really showed up in the NFL. Intangibles sucked. Matt Ryan-all the intangibles are there, similar arm, from a similar system. Ryan has shown a similar skillset and mental makeup being successful in the NFL. Ryan is a good picture of upside. I think a pre-shoulder injury Pennington would be the floor. Either is a drastic improvement. All that being said, I'm not saying I think he's better than Smith or Wilson, just that I think he'll be the pick for a gunshy franchise. |
