Anyone seen this? Geno Smith absolutely trashed by Draft Analyst

This is the same guy who said Cam Newton was a con-artist and a fraud before that draft...

Wow.

Not a student of the game. Nonchalant field presence — does not command respect from teammates and cannot inspire. Mild practice demeanor — no urgency. Not committed or focused — marginal work ethic. Interviewed poorly at the Combine and did not show an understanding of concepts on the white board. Opted not to compete at the Senior Bowl and has approached offseason training as if he has already arrived and it shows in his body with minimal muscle definition or strength. Has small hands and glaring ball security issues (32 career fumbles). Really struggled handling the snow in Pinstripe Bowl (took two safeties) and will be troubled by the elements. Needed to be coddled in college — cannot handle hard coaching.

A cross between Akili Smith and Aaron Brooks, Smith is a gimmick, overhyped product of the system lacking the football savvy, work habits and focus to cement a starting job and could drain energy from a QB room. Will be overdrafted and struggle to produce against NFL defensive complexities.

yeah, I read their stuff during the off season leading up to the draft. That shot at Cam Newton was uncalled for.
I don't really put as much stock into his opinions as much now.

oh yeah, what a bastard
that should not effect his draft status anyway. The QB class this year isn't all that great anyway.

So he at least knows what he is talking about then

I don't think he'll pan out

How was he wrong about cam?

the "fake, disingenuous smile" comment was awful. What in the hell does that have to do with his play on the field.
I mean I laughed at first too but as you went on reading it was clear he had some kind of vendetta against him. Their draft guides are good reads but whenever he takes what appears to be a personal shot at a player, I don't like it. Just give me the standard info, not what you think he'll do in the pros or how you think he'll react in certain situations. Please.

I saw the "cross between Akili Smith and Aaron Brooks" comment on ESPN boston, thought it was a bit ridiculous
Posted on 4/1/13 at 7:59 pm to SPEEDY
Exactly. At least he's honest

When they are a QB and is supposed to the leader of the team and offense it will absolutely effect their play IMO.

He was right about cam number one.
Number two, Geno sucks as he showed that all season so i'm not sure why this is a big deal.
Sounds to me like the world of sports needs more people like this guy that know what they are talking about.

The guy had never met Newton so it's pretty bold to make that assessment.
It's obvious he adds a little extra juice to get himself some pub. I'm sure his perfect scenario is some 1st Take producer connects the dots that Newton and Smith are black and they have the guy on to "debate" Skip and Stephen A.

This guy is 100% right about Geno.
