He is so much better than Bray it's ridiculous.

I stand corrected then. I thought you were being funny about how EVERYONE looks like a world beater on highlight clips.

98.6% to be exact.

it just depends what quarterbacks are left.

Reason based posts are so refreshing. Thanks.

Kaepernick has enough physical tools to be viewed as a developmental backup quarterback prospect. Experienced, competitive, productive and durable but very raw in terms of making NFL reads and throws. Will need to become accustomed to making pro-style progressions and must improve overall accuracy. Arm strength is good but needs to tighten up his delivery and work on getting the ball out on time with more consistency. Can make a lot of plays with his feet but will be too confident at times and take unnecessary sacks. Kaepernick will likely attract a team with his measurables and outstanding intangibles. His stock has risen considerably with solid workouts, so expect him to be taken some time in the second to third round.

I SO wanted him for the Chiefs in the 2nd round. :(

Is it a coincidence that the human body temperature is 98.6 degrees and anybody with a pulse knows Geno is the best QB in this class?

:D

As someone who spent a lot of time on other teams boards last year as well, it's remarkable how similar the talks of Wilson last year, are to talks of Manuel this year.

"He could climb up a lot of boards"

"I don't know I still see him in the late 2nd or 3rd round"

Though obviously each player has different negatives.

If he's the second QB we take in the draft, I'm okay with that.

It's all about the competition you are facing.

That's true. But most people don't quote stats against those teams.

As a passer, Wilson was leaps and bounds better than Manuel. Bad comparison. If the dude was 6'2" he'd have gone ahead of Tannehill.

Myth. His last year was the first time he threw over 60% in a season, and he did it by throwing the ball more than 200 times less than his junior year.

Does the recent acquisition of Alex Smith open up a possibility of drafting Manuel?

I do not believe that he will still be available in the 3rd round, but if we decide to move out of the first pick and acquire several picks Manuel would be a great target IMO. Most believe he would not be ready right out of college, we roll with Smith a year or two and then have our young QB hopefully groomed by Reid who can step in and hopefully be our QBOTF.

I don't think he will be around in the 3rd. EVEN if the Chiefs wanted to spend a 3rd on him which they may not. We are going to get raped if we trade down.

I doubt they make that pick it wanders dangerously close to a smart move.
