West Virginia quarterback Geno Smith is known as a pocket passer. He isn't seen as a natural fit for use as a read-option quarterback because his college game really wasn't centered on running. But Smith showed Sunday that he has the wheels to run when necessary. Smith posted an official time of 4.59 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine. Other notable quarterback times in the 40: Florida State's E.J. Manuel ran a 4.65, Tyler Wilson clocked a 4.95, Landry Jones ran a 5.11, and Ryan Nassib posted a 5.06. Source: NFL.com

i still don't see how this guy doesn't have the arm and ability to read to be an nfl qb. about the only thing i see that is a question mark is his motivation/commitment but if he in fact has that also, i don't see why he shouldn't be a top 5 pick.
When it comes down to it, I still think he goes #1 . I don't see him getting past the Eagles at #4 Sent from my HTC Vivid
