This fanbase knew RG3 MUCH BETTER because he played in the Big 12.
So at the end of the day, the only objective comparison is to look at what guys like Kiper and McShay had to say. On their boards, he was NOT 2. He wasn't even TEN.
As for the "infuriates" comment, nobody gets infuriated when you put up a legit criticism like you just did there. What is infuriating is people repeating misinformation over and over.

WTF is this notion of an 'objective comparison?'
One side is skeptical of how convinced some are that Geno 'absolutely cannot miss, . . . .but if he does no big deal.'
Those convinced rebut with 'yeah, well people weren't sold on RGIII last year.'
'Yeah we were.'
'Well Kiper wasn't, and you don't count because you saw lots and lots of RGIII'
AGAIN, FTR, I'm not anti-Geno. I'm anti-failure to perform due diligence and cruise into the draft with this 'he's gonna be great, everyone else sucks, and it doesn't matter if he's a total bust because it's the gamble we HAVE TO take' attitude. That's just begging for him to be the next Akili Carr-Leaf.
