Geno Smith became the latest quarterback drafted by the Jets to get added to the team’s QB graveyard this week when a torn ACL ended his season and most likely his time with the Jets.
Smith is just another log on the fire that is the Jets’ terrible quarterback history since Joe Namath left town in 1976. Smith’s name will go alongside Richard Todd, Browning Nagle, Mark Sanchez and all the rest as failed quarterbacks taken in the draft.
The Jets messed up with Smith from the start. They were gushing over him at the 2013 rookie minicamp the week after he was drafted in the second round and desperately wanted him to beat out Sanchez in training camp.
