I have no idea what anybody else is saying to you, or what kind of argument you're currently involved in with them. All I'm saying is that I'm concerned about the backup quarterback position because we don't have what I consider to be any kind of quality experience there.

This is not a statement that Daniel sucks. This is not a statement that either he or Bray is a waste of space. It's only a statement that, at least at this point, our backups (working on the I think safe assumption that Stanzi is released...) consist of two undrafted players with next to no live-fire NFL experience.

I think it's fair to call that a concern, particularly with a starter who's missed as many games as Alex Smith has.

I am not saying that Daniel can't play. I am saying that Daniel has not demonstrated that he can play. Regardless of why, regardless of how much coaches or GMs might like him, the reality is that he just hasn't played. And until he does, and until he shows he's a capable backup, it's going to be a concern.

I'm not assuming that he can't. I'm also not assuming that he can. Until he shows what he can do one way or the other, the simple fact is that I don't know. Hence the concern.

Legitimate concern. Yes.
