    These are three different posts that all miss the point. I don't care what happened in 2012, I'm a season-ticket holding fan of course I'm going to root for the to win, and of course it's a good thing Smith has looked competent in OTAs.

    The point is that the original post was smarmy and sarcastic, implying that taking a guy in the 4th when he was a projected 6th is completely justified because of solid OTAs.

    It was definitely smarmy. Spiking the football over some summer practices where they run around in shorts and mocking TGG posters as "experts" with an LOL to boot

    also smarmy is a great word

    Your post didn't imply anything you wanted to convey.

    The post above has done that job though, shame you didn't just say that in the first place.

    Smarmy is one of those words that sounds exactly like what it means.

    It totally does, it's almost like the onomatopoeia for dbaggery if that had a sound effect.

    i’m sure you would love for there not to be a point in that post but seems other people found it.

    Definitely, and that is discovering smarmy, onomatopoeia for dbaggery!

    What was the point of your original post if it wasn't to be smarmy?

    I'm sure there is a bit of irony kicking about now tbh

    I'm just trying to figure out how "experts" were wrong about something with nothing but voluntary OTAs to base your opinion on.

    This IS a very definition of "onomatopoeia for dbaggery". You are obsessing over a statement that (verbatum) it was not a bad thing to have good OTA showing for a 4th round pick most "experts" thought was over drafted. Yes, a pointless post by you to say the least, and it keeps on getting worse. I understand there is nothing to talk about, but you are taking this to a new low.

    As a gunner, absolutely agree. Although, I wouldn’t mind seeing what he can do on KR. Not something he did at UGA but he rocked it in high school.

    He looked like he was shot out of a cannon on his only touch of the day - a screen behind the line.

    Maybe we should send this guy deep and try throwing him the ball?

    The reason we suck is because players like him never develop. He needs to be starting across from GW5, no questions asked. Glenn needs to see th ebigger picture.

    I'm sure Glenn will come up with a reason why Smith doesn't play more... or why Pritchard hasn't been promoted.. or why Fields continues to play stupid football while Taylor is on the bench. Obviously the idea isn't to stack wins.. Maybe they still think they can transform Fields into a functional NFL QB although there has been no proof so far this is even possible.

    I challenge anyone to spell it without looking it up--I would have trouble right away as I thought it started with "Ot" as in otomatopia

    He had 36 passing snaps and yet practically invisible. Is he not winning his reps, are we not calling the plays for him, or Fields cannot see him? Whatever it is, seems like an absolute waste of his speed.
