he learned everything except when to step up and make a play to win and when not to fumble or throw a crucial pick to lose the game.

NFL Network's Mike Mayock said he would definitely not take West Virginia QB Geno Smith in the Top 10.
Mayock said he would "pound the table" for Pro Football Weekly's Nolan Nawrocki, who penned a scathing report on Smith earlier this week. "It's absolutely the football side," Mayock said. "Talk about the football issues: First of all, ball security, ties into the pocket awareness. Whatever that number is, 30, 32 fumbles in his career, he has no awareness of the rush surrounding him. ... Deep ball accuracy: I put a reel together of six to eight throws that should have been touchdowns, wide open vertical guys that he overthrew or underthrew. He stares down receivers and he throws the football late, so there's a lack of anticipation and timing.

Everyone agrees that Smith shouldn't be taken anywhere near the top of the draft. That won't stop it from happening, though.

i cant recall where i saw it but it was a respected site that has ryan nassib as the #1 overall player in the draft and geno the number 5 qb

[Seabiscuit36]

I'm all about Nassib if they trade back in the 2nd.  I want no part of Smith or EJ

ive never seen a draft where no one has any idea even who the first three picks are going to be...much less as you get deeper into the draft

like i do every year im putting together my list of players id like the eagles to take with each pick and unlike any other draft ive seen i feel like i could easily be a round off on players...normally id be like i hope this guy falls to the eagles in the 3rd round...but its gonna be close...this draft has me questioning whether the eagles should take a particular player their second or third pick...

a lot of it has to do with the depth...and this is a deep draft no doubt but imo it has more to do with the lack of high end talent in the players this year...more than ever this draft has rock solid good players but it also has a dearth of highly skilled guys...there arent many pimps for example where the talent is off the charts but the size is a hinderance...or a janoris jenkins who again was super talented but had off the field questions (the tennessee wr's patterson and hunter are exceptions)

starting with the second round i feel like you legitimately have 75 players who are all solid and could contribute right away and that what will decide where they go is in the eye of each individual player personel dept.....there arent very many players where everyone is going to look at a certain guy and be like hes super talented and is not falling past a certain area of the second round....most of these 75 guys could go anywhere from the late first to late 3rd

[BigEd76]

Yea it's all over the place.  I've seen at least 20 mocks and other than Joeckel being #1 on most of them, the rest are all over the place.  Guys like Margus Hunt going late-1st in some mocks and 3rd in others, Damontre Moore falling to the 2nd round on most of them, Eric Reid going anywhere from mid-1st to late-3rd.  KC is supposedly down to Joeckel, Fisher and Jordan....that's the only thing we know right now


Three more visits to NovaCare coming up this weekend or next week:  Joeckel, Star and Dee

If these idiots draft Geno Smith with the fourth pick the only possible reason I'd stomach it would be that they passed on Manuel.

Still, it's absolutely ridiculous to draft him when there are so many other players at positions they could benefit from.  Get a bookend tackle for 10 years and be happy the 2012 disaster allowed you to do it.
