His All-American caliber center was injured in week 2, and the back-up is a walk on red shirt freshman. There's been too much pressure up the A and B gap, not allowing him to step up in the pocket like he needs to for those deep throws.
But then again, when you have weapons like Woods & Lee, why not just hit them on a bubble screen or quick slant and watch them take it to the house?

Barkley should have came out last year, the extra year of scrutiny is doing him no favors.

Meh with RG3, Luck and the chance to win Heisman I understand why he did what he did.

Well, at least he saved a team from drafting a stiff.

I'd be interested to see how many of those he's overthrown, also He's no Chad Pennington, and definatley has enough arm to play in this league.

Never said he'd be any good 
But in reality he's still a first rounder, and he's got more arm than Leinart coming out, who looked decent each time he's been in a west coast style scheme.
That said, if Geno Smith played in this offense he'd be the no doubt #1 pick. The biggest issue with him is that no one knows how he'll react to making actual reads and quickly going through his progressions. Almost always when his first read isn't there and in a rare occasion he looks to his 2nd option and he's not there, he pulls the ball down and scrambles and/or runs.

So in other words Mike Vick while playing for the Falcons?

Did he have a noodle arm or something? I thought his arm strength was sufficient...

I would be thrilled if we landed Fluker. He's an absolute physical specimen. Before this season I wouldn't have even considered this because I was convinced Fluker would only improve and become a top 10 pick but so far this year he has slightly regressed. While still dominating in the run game he got embarrassed in pass protection in the western kentucky game and against michigan and didn't look sharp last week either. That being said he still has the biggest ceiling of any 2013 tackle prospect and it's looking likely that he'll fall past the middle of the 1st. I'm expecting the Eagles to have a pick in the 21-32 range. At that point I'd expect the TAMU tackles to be gone, from what I've seen they have both looked like studs so far this year. No matter what I'm in favor of an offensive line pick, and I wouldn't be against picking Barrett Jones. He can play anywhere on the line. I predict there will be 3-4 lineman off the board by the time we pick. We definitely need a new SS, but I think we could afford to wait till later to take one. This years safety class is a lot better than recent ones with the likes of TJ, Jefferson, Rambo, Reid, Lester among others. Any of those guys I'd be happy getting and they'd each be improvements over Coleman. I just think we need to make our first priority OL, followed by safety. After that I wouldn't mind seeing us take a linebacker, a big receiver, or tight end.

Not even close rookie, Vick played in an actual offense and dropped back from center and threw every route in the route tree. I've never seen Geno line up under center and I've only seen him throw 3 or 4 routes.
I'm not saying he's a good prospect, he's actually bigger and more accurate than an early Vick, but his offense is gimmicky as all hell.
