Geno Smith fans roll call

[SNR]

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 ***** 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

I think he's got a better arm than RGIII and just as many leadership qualities. Plus, he's built a little sturdier and has better pocket presence (though RGIII certainly isn't lacking in that department).

Only significant advantage RGIII has over Geno is making plays with his feet. But Geno isn't a slouch there, either. He can scramble pretty well when he has to, and is pretty damn elusive in the pocket.

That, and he can make downright ****in cool ballon animals

***** is so ****ing stubborn when it comes to drafting he will never take a guy like Geno

It'll be interesting to see if Daboll has any pull into this situation during the offseason, assuming that the entire thing isn't blown up. When he described his ideal QB in the offseason, and in previous interviews, it was about a guy who could attach the field and who had a strong arm and was accurate. Essentially, he was describing the anti-Cassel.

*****, on the other hand, seems to prefer pocket passers who don't work exclusively in the shotgun. I remember a comment he made in the book War Room about some QB who never played under center in College. So he would probably gravitate more towards a Matt Barkley type, my guess would be...

Would you guys deal with another year of Cassel if Geno Smith were sitting behind him? Because that is ALSO a possibility.

Yes....easy question. I could endure another year of Casshole if we actually drafted a QB (especially Smith) in the 1st round.

I could deal with it because Cassel wouldn't make it a whole season with Geno in the wings

Cassell wouldn't make it past preseason so I not worried. Doesn't even look like he is going to make it past the trade dead line week 8. If not sooner.

Matt Barkley and Geno Smith are the selections at the #2 spot

[MIAdragon]

If its between Geno and Barkley and we take the latter I will be PISSED.

I heard Barkley was pretty good, plus, he's a starter for USC...

Doesn't have the arm.

Geno Smith is by far the #1 prospect right now.

I think Barkley stock is going drop betime the draft rolls around. His arrow will be pointing down. Geno Smith arrow pointing up.

Let's not get this thing twisted: Barkley is a very good prospect. Right now, though, it appears that Smith is going to be off the ****ing chart.

1-15 baby! Our only challenge of the year will be finding a way to lose to the Browns and Raiders.

I don't think that Cleveland is moving off of Weeden in one year, and OAK is just too ****ing stupid to worry about in earnest. JAX, however, might be a concern should Gabbert not show progress. That said, he's been better to start year two, as one would expect.

Basically, the Chiefs are likely going to be in great position, or they could be in great position via an aggressive trade. The key is to fire ***** in plenty of time, or for the coward to try so hard to cover his own ass that he crawls into doing the right thing for the wrong reasons (saving his job and fraudulent reputation).
