sounds good. The kid definitely has all the talent, just a couple tweaks in his footwork. Only thing i've ever question'd about him was the mental aspect, but like you said it's hard to know any of whats fact and fiction. Thanks for your take on it though, appreciate it.
I agree he needs to throw at the combine though, not only needs to show his skillset but show his progress towards becoming a better QB for the league. If not then yes red flag for sure. |

This. He's got a plus arm as is but when he fixes that slight footwork issue I could see him being in the conversation having a top ten arm, if not top ten, certainly top half.

One thing I've noticed is that he seems to be a little over taken with his touch, which is very good. He has great touch and anticipates throwing to different levels well, but he struggles at times, when he needs to rip it, instead throwing a touchy pass.
Could be footwork could be a mental thing, dunno yet. Does seem when his footwork is right, he has a plus arm. Its not Stafford, but really, who is? Dude could throw a tennis ball thru a brick wall. |

God, I'd love to have a picture of him getting beamed by Rodgers with a dodgeball hanging in my living room.
Glorious.

Rogers throws hard; Kaepernick has a damn rocket. If he doesn't have the strongest arm in the league, he's at least close. Here's a compromise, instead of taking Rodgers off the team, how 'bout we add Kaepernick and RGIII to the game and put them on opposite teams. Stafford Flacco RGIII Vs. Cutler Rodgers Kaepernick Best of 11 series. I'd pay a hell of a lot more to watch that than I would to watch the pro bowl. EDIT: Damn You Thig Lyfe!!!

Regarding Geno and throwing at the combine...
If he has fixed his base as much as Chris Weinke seems to think he has, he'll have GOOD motivation to throw at the combine. With better mechanics, his natural arm strength is going to show (And he'll go from being "adequate" to being "very good," which is a big difference), and that's going to help him jump his stock.
