Evan Roberts can dream, but is it too much of a fantasy?
Transcript
00:00The first thing he said jumps out at me, because what we want, and the reason I was against acquiring
00:05Geno Smith, is that he's not the long-term answer. He's old. What is this leading me towards?
00:09Geno Smith, at 35 years old, he'll be 36 in the middle of October, just told all of us, I
00:16got a lot of football left in me. I plan on this being a long-term solution for the New
00:21York Jets.
00:22Now, I know that is very difficult for any of us to imagine, and I am certainly not sitting here
00:26on March 13th, Friday the 13th, and telling you that Geno Smith is the long-term answer, but like I
00:32also told you, Tiki, I like to dream.
00:34Is it possible that we get another resurrection of Geno Smith, and we're not drafting a quarterback next year, and
00:42he's the guy?
00:43It's probably wishful thinking, but I mean, Geno does it, and it's different for quarterbacks than it is for, say,
00:50a running back, but he didn't take a ton of wear and tear, didn't get sacked, you know, 40, 50
00:55times a year for about half a decade, because he just wasn't playing.
01:00And so, is he healthy? Sure. Is he physically still fit? I would think that the athletic athletes that are
01:09playing this game can now play longer if they're healthy, and mainly just a quarterback, but so can he play
01:16until he's 40? Maybe.
01:18But is he going to be good? I don't know. But with that being said, the most important thing that
01:23he told us was that he wants to.
