Geno Smith fans roll call

[RealSNR]

NEW THREAD HEADER (11/17/12):

The list is gone. We will all be Geno Smith fans when he gets drafted by the Chiefs. For historical documentation's sake, I'll keep the list in a separate post on this thread: http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showp...postcount=3314

WHY GENO SMITH?
If you're wondering if Geno Smith is right for you, check out this brilliant post by Saccopoo:

Next, we have a few GIFs you may be interested in from the Oklahoma game. Insane potential. These are the elite throws that very few QBs can make. What more can I say? Geno Smith can be a franchise QB in the NFL, and the Chiefs need to take a shot on him.

GIF #3 (My favorite):

HOW DO WE GET HIM HERE?

Glad you asked. I posted this checklist earlier. It probably belongs in the thread header, and will be updated as the Chiefs close out their season and start a new chapter in their franchise story.

Preparing for Geno Smith's Arrival In KC Checklist

1. [X] Lose games and acquire the #1 overall pick
2. [X] Get Pioli and the Patriot Way cronies the **** out
3. [X] Hire new GM/coach

OPTIONAL (but highly recommended):
4. [ ] Re-sign/tag Bowe, who really wants to play in KC with Geno
5. [ ] Re-sign/tag Albert

You are the stupidest ****er I've ever seen on this board.

It is what it is, and I'm just letting you know that Smith has reps, a full season of starting and putting up excellent numbers, in a true pro style set. He's got the accuracy, the pocket presence, perfect release, great arm, great velocity to all points on the field, etc.

You are making the argument for Luck last season with the exact same attributes that make Geno an excellent QB prospect this season. He's putting up near identical numbers with a substantially lesser supporting cast.

Geno Smith, at least in my opinion, is as good a QB prospect as I've seen outside of a guy named Luck in the past 10/15 years. And he's not as far away from Luck as you are envisioning. They've got a lot of the same tools and qualities.

Wrong. RgIII was as good of a prospect as Luck.

Don't make yourself foolish by acting like what Geno did as a sophomore even remotely compares to what Luck did as a senior. And you're saying geno could have easily done what luck has done is ridiculous. You are wildly assuming geno could have beaten a guy who was off the charts on football iq. A football iq that has been unmatched by any qb prospect in years upon years.

I like geno better than cam, Bradford, jamarcus, even stafford. But please don't overinflate the hype machine by comparing him to luck and rgIII.

What?!

There wasn't a scout on the planet that had Griffin as a first rounder after the 2010 season. It wasn't until the midway point of 2011 that the first round shit became a near certainty and he ultimately cemented it with the Combine.

Griffin had one great year in a true spread offense. The same reason you are "downgrading" Geno.

Geno has done what Luck has done. Their numbers, accuracy, TD's, etc. are virtually identical. And that's with Luck having three NFL level offensive linemen and a top 20 defense. And Geno's football IQ is exceptional.

Somebody is making themselves look foolish, and it's not me.

Tell me you don't want him even more:

Grade School

Smith was classified as gifted and taught an advanced curriculum emphasizing creativity and the arts, including writing stories and poetry. Smith acted as well, performing in his school’s production of “The Nutcracker”. In fifth grade, Smith won an oratorical contest reciting work by the poet Langston Hughes. Smith even competed in chess tournaments, however, he enjoyed sketching cartoon characters the most.

Smith was admitted to Norland Middle School’s magnet program, which dedicated two hours a day to arts instruction. "There, Smith thrived, drawing with pencils and charcoal. Painting with pastels and acrylic paints required touch, foresight and patience. Minor mistakes could nullify hours of work. No matter what tools he employed, he was a perfectionist."[1]

Not putting geno in the same league as rgIII or luck isn't downgrading. It's common sense. RgIII is a terrific pure passer. Better than geno. And that's complimented by elite athleticism. Don't pull this bs that geno is nearly the prospect rgIII was.

Stop it. Just stop. You are probably the only person not just on cp, but outside of Wes Virginia fans who would make such a ridiculous statement that geno should be considered the same quality prospect as luck. I want all in on geno. But statements like this make the whole geno movement look ridiculous.

Man, the Nutcracker is no easy gig.

Are you ****ing high right now?

Go read Griffin's scouting reports from 2010. Do it. Seriously.

The "whole geno movement?"

The guy is the top rated QB in this draft. The Chiefs need a QB. Geno's a terrific prospect. And yes, his numbers are near identical to Luck's from last season. With a supporting cast that isn't close to what Luck had at Stanford.

As long as you are living in a surrealistic, revisionistic history world currently, how do you think Luck would have done at WV this season? How would Griffin have done?

And you are absolutely obessing over the 2012 draft.

It's long gone dude. Get over it or go purchase a Colts Luck jersey, because it ain't happening.

Can't wait until he takes that piece of charcoal and starts drawing up Chiefeangelo masterpiece precise offensive plays that will dismantle defenses especially those in the AFC West Not sure Michelangelo ever drew with charcoal though

If this info is true and not just PR hype, like you this is very very good info about his intelligence. I have not heard much if anything at all about his true intelligence for the game BUT the fact that he has equal to better numbers than Luck with far lesser talent and the pressure to overcompensate every game which you would think his INT total would be much higher. But it isn't which tells you his eye for immediate instinctual intelligence to details and what he sees says he is a wise QB beyond his years at this point.
