    With the 39th overall pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the Jets select West Virginia QB Geno Smith. Though Smith has had his ups and downs as a passer in West Virginia's prolific spread offense, NFL general managers appreciate his ultra-competitive nature, athleticism, arm strength and quick delivery. The Mountaineer turned down a Senior Bowl invitation after regressing in the second half of the season following a strong start. Smith's eye level and pocket movement can be great, but he reverted back to staring down his first read. During his sophomore season, Smith played in an offense where he frequently took snaps from center, so he might have a leg up compared to some other prospects in that regard.

    I have a bad feeling Geno Smith is going to be like Vince Young.

    Lol. I have that same exact feeling. I'm a jets fan, but i hate the pick. It makes sense for the team to move on from Sanchez...but why not beef up other positions n go for a real franchise QB next year. Whatever. Geno Smith is the new QB n i wish him much success.

    ...and i fade back to black.
