Learned early on to handle adversity…..went from Media Darling to afterthought this past season. Will make a good NFL QB…..best scenarios…..Steelers, Cowboys or Packers. Serve as an apprentice and move up in 3-4 years.

Or is that a case of coincidence? I always get those two mixes up.

Chiefs, Jets, Jacksonville, Bills would be lucky to have a player like Geno! I think we get caught up in the first rounders…

Even when I’m wide awake.”.

To talk about Geno going the 1st overall pick is NUTS. I dont even think he is a 1st rounder, but if he is still around at the bottom of the 2nd, Chiefs will take him since they need a QB. However, look for a trade between KC and Seattle or SF for either of those backups. That would be wiser.

He acted like a baby when they were losing a lot in college and doesn’t deserve a first round choice.

He comes off as intelligent and mature. I’m also a fan of anyone who says they play the game like it’s a chess match. I don’t think 1st overall would be too high for him.

In several games he had more TDs than incompletions. He has a great arm and exceptional footwork. It will surprise me if he is passed over by KC.

After Smith, you have E.J. Manuel, Glennon and Barkley.

Hopefully not just one like that poor sap RG3.

He did a lot on a not very good team in college. It will be interesting to see what NFL coaching can do for this kid.

Barkley said he’s not a runner, but he’s also not a statue. FWIW, Barkley wins in the personality contest. Barkley also went on to say he’s a traditional QB, no read option.
