Geno and Barkley are the only 2 with immediate starter ability, IMO. Manuel may get there, but I could see him not getting to 34. Glennon and Nassib are crap, Bray...you're talking a 1 in 3 shot of actually hitting on him, at best. I don't see anything to suggest that the Chiefs will come away with a legitimate developmental QB at 34. They're more likely to end up stuck in a malaise for 1/2 a decade only to have to bottom out again and put us through this shit all over again in 2017.

I expect him to suck most of the season, get hurt during a game and Winston redoes his cry fit

that's his big knock from me right now...average arm, needs to get better in the red zone as for Peyton ****ing Manning it's Peyton ****ing Manning and the 49ers had an elite defense with elite playmakers and an elite line pretty sure you can't hold that against Harbaugh or the 49ers for inquiring... I mean, he's still a top 3 QB in the NFL...and I'm pretty sure Harbaugh wasn't in any rush to start Kaepernick until he saw him in a real game situation on MNF against a damn good Bears defense. EITHER WAY WE GET IT, EVERYONE KNOWS IT...Smith is not a long term solution at QB and I highly doubt Reid/Dorsey are planning on making him one. and if they do, THEN WE CAN ALL START CUTTING |

Eleven wins is a bullshit platitude. It's meaningless. It's also, by the definition of the purpose of competitive sports, not really "adequate". Matt Schaub can do that too. He's not good enough. Neither are Tony Romo or Jay Cutler.

Geno Smith is a long term answer so there is no point in wasting time on Alex Smith when the future is there for the taking.

speaking of Shaun Hill
I'd rather have him. He really impressed me in Detroit when he filled in for Stafford a few years ago. |

Let's not act like he got thrown out of the lineup. He got hurt and when he did, Kaepernick seized the reigns like you would hope for from a great QB and never looked back. And as for the 'entire NFL' not trusting him, well many of those front offices were lead by guys that though Matt Cassel or Ryan Fitzpatrick where the keys to winning championships, so I'm not real swayed by bad teams not recognizing a better QB situation. Nor am I surprised that 1/2 the NFL realized they had a better QB situation.

Shaun Hill is a good backup QB. He'd be a fine addition. The problem is our fanbase's obsession with equating backup to "Hey, he could be our guy."

I just hope they don't give Smith an extension before he plays this season. If they do that then I'm right on board with the "we're ****ed" crew. It's like I'm in hell and they keep playing the same cruel joke on me. |
