He makes very poor decisions facing any competent passing defense, he chokes in big games like clockwork, and it's very commonly believed that he is a drug user. He also is very irritable and probably the exact opposite of a "leader." His temperament is the kind that is offputting, rather than rallying because of his irritability. He is also awful outside the pocket. He is a "big, strong arm" player but terrible at everything else related to QB. | ||

He missed the team workout with Carolina I think. Rumor was he partied too hard and was hungover. Never confirmed tho. Also by staying another year many of his flaws were exposed and he did not look god last year. If he went last year he was a top 5 pick. | ||

At this point I think someone will pull the trigger and get a great but very short lived player. Edit - The Bucs pick up Bowers! Pick #51 i think. Great pick at this point. He isnt getting a big payday and he has the talent. So if he stays healthy for a for years its a GREAT deal. IF his knee turns out to be not so bad and he holds up, he could be the steal of the entire draft. | ||

I don't want to watch anymore. Vikings dead last in the NFC North, I have no doubt whatsoever Maybe it's just me but aren't the Lions all of a sudden STACKED talent-wise? Bound to happen after so many years with early draft positions though. Last year they were dominant in a lot of the matches they lost, they're definitely going to be my pick for surprise team next season. | ||

If you keep on changing like this you will let Oakland and Al Davis take back the title of worst run franchise. | ||

They will probably pick up a vet quaterback for backup. I think kapernick starts the year after if he's ready. You went to HS with Kapernick? That's cool a buddy of mine went to HS and played football with him too. His brother comes into the place where I use to work (Wing-Stop) all the time. I'm not completely sold on him though. Yeah he definitely needs a year or two on the bench to develop, but even then I'm not sure he'll become a franchise qb. Regardless I don't know of a QB left I would have taken before him and the 49ers need a QB so a solid pick nonetheless. For those of you whining about Aldon Smith being a reach, shutup already. The guy was projected to go somewhere between 11-20. 7th's not that big a reach. Especially in comparison to the guy who was picked at 8th. You could argue Quinn has more upside, but he comes at a bigger risk too. Either way both players are young and full of potential and the cream of the crop at their respective positions. Niners definitely aren't playing to win next year though. Two projects with their first two picks :/ | ||
