ESPN's Mike & Mike Show this morning brought to light a negative report on Geno Smith's work ethic, relationship with teammates etc. etc.
It was pretty damaging, and Golic cautioned that "if you're going to put this stuff out there for people to see, you'd better have talked to a lot of people to corroborate this - and you'd better be right."
Source of the report was Nolan Nawrocky of PFW). (Note - Golic's associate on the show stood up for the writer as a responsible guy who usually does his homework).
Todd McShay says that, contrary to what Nawrocky says, there are other reports that Smith works hard, is a good leader, has a passion for the game, etc. and that Nawrocky's language might be a bit negative and overblown.
Comments, therefore, appear to be mixed, but this story figures to have legs as we get closer to draft day.
Sometimes stories like this get amped up by teams hoping a guy will slide down to them. Welcome to the beginning of the pre-draft circus and enjoy the show.
