Geno Smith

If Geno is there at #7, I honestly think we'll take him.

But the hard reality of the situation is, Jacksonville, Oakland, and Cleveland could all use a QB in their own right.

In Jacksonville, they sound committed to giving Blaine Gabbert another chance this year. He has shown some improvement statistically over his first two seasons, but from all accounts, he has to earn that starting QB job in camp. They also have more pressing needs, since they have been unable to generate a pass rush and I believe they could use help at guard.

Oakland has to make a decision on Palmer, and Palmer has to make a decision on Oakland. Unless the two sides reach an agreement on a likely pay cut, Palmer could find himself shopping around his services (which I feel indifferent about whether he could fit here or not). Pryor, while he may be their "intended" QB of the future, has yet to show that he can be. Oakland also needs help in other areas and could emerge with someone like Shariff Floyd.

Cleveland sounds committed to Weeden, but new regime could mean a new QB.

Again, if Geno is there at #7.. I'd expect us to take him UNLESS Kolb has restructured.

Rather than start a new thread, I figured I would field my question here. I was wondering who the Cards might look at assuming either they don't like Geno or he isn't available when they pick? Would Kolb be the organizations 1st choice or would they look towards a FA QB/trade?

I am sure Brady or Rodgers etc are first choice.

Kevin is probably 2nd atm, with a rookie as close 3rd.

Which rookie is up to debate, Geno, Wilson, EJ etc, everyone has a favourite

All this is just making my belief stronger. ANYTHING that comes out in the media this time is year has more chance of being wrong than it does of being right.

If he is there at seven I doubt we pass.

On Hoge - He is an idiot; What he should have said, if I was running the Cardinals "Ain't no way I would take Smith". Because that is what he is saying, he has no inside information, he is not quoting sources it is his opinion.

Name that seems to be going along with Cardinals is Matt Scott from Arizona. Projected 3rd round or better.. maybe we pass on Smith..

Scott is just Max Hall with a smiggen more height

I like him but might as well stick with Kolb, unless they think he is Russell Wilson 2013.

Ok, maybe not a complete comparision (it was early in Oz, I am blaming that), but we have meet with Scott at least twice, and i dont think it is a curteousy to the local schools.

Where there is smoke....
