QB Combine Thread


Jackofalltrades

Recommended Posts

This will be where I do everything QB wise as I watch the combine. I'll post pertinent 40 and drill performances as well as commentary from the panel which right now is Mayock, Davis and Sterling Sharpe.

Freaky how big and athletic all these guys are.

Kaepernick is every bit the athlete that Newton is. 4.53 40

Locker 40 4.52 both attempts

Gabbert 4.63 and 4.61

All commentary is centering around size and athletesism of these guys.

Gabbert 4.61

Kapernick 4.53

Locker 4.52 (3rd fastest time for a QB in the last 11 combines unofficial)

Mallet not running and nor should he :D

Dalton 4.86

Mayock again says Gabbart has a higher ceiling than any other QB in this draft.

A note on Kapernick, huge arm, great RPM's on the ball, threw for over 2000 yards and ran for over 1000 yards like 3 years in a row.

Kaepernick is really growing on me. Did it for 3 years in college, passed for over 2000 yards and rushed for 1000 yards for 3 years. A little raw but has all the tools and apparently the work ethic.

Hmm I'm not sure what to think about Cam Newton. I don't know if the FO is seriously considering or trying to pull off a big smokescreen. I know JR is meeting with him apparently.

If Cam is selected we will need to establish a game plan for him, for his talents, and for the fact that he will be a rookie. One positive I see with him is that he should be able to extend plays fairly easily. Which means Steve Smith, and Gettis will have plenty of time to break off routes and stretch the field. Should mean big numbers for Smitty again.

But the big problem with this is that we have seen that type of game before. We have seen the VY, Mike Vick(ATL) offense, which means it will be shut down and figured out eventually. And Cam will not be developed enough to shoulder the team like that.

Yes, because according to him it would be Gabbert.

Or Locker :rolleyes:

I would be happy as a lark if we drafted Gabbert. Doesn't bother me a bit. I like Cam more, but it is time to draft a QB and get it fixed.

BTW these guys on the NFL network are clueless. (Not Maycock).

They hardly know what QBs are in our division :eek:

They have completely pissed all over Josh Freeman the last two day. Called him the wrong name yesterday. Didn't know his first name. Then today they talk about the great QB's in our division. They said there are two good QB's in our division Ryan and Brees. Poor Josh. Dude is a top 12 QB in the league and just gets dissed

Fuggin clueless.

    • If you draft a guy who is healthy and has no concerns about that whatsoever and he goes out and tears his ACL in his first few games in the regular season on a physical play that's a freak accident. But when you trade up to draft an RB who is already rehabbing from a recent ACL tear and he spends the next several months continuing his rehab only to tear the same ACL again after less than a handful of regular season carries in a non contact circumstance that is no freak accident. That is a textbook example of why you do not do what we did. Particularly for what is now a plug and play position. And when you have the highest paid OL in the league over the next two years. None of that makes any logical sense. Legitimately it is and was some Scott Fitterer type foolishness. Now as for XL. The guy has not been committed to his craft. I think anyone with eyes on the situation can and would recognize that. However the warning signs were there. One season of legit production raw prospect that we knew would take time to develop etc. But Morgan and Bryce Young's own father were very high on him. I think in some capacity the reality of our limitation at QB is entering into the equation. Even TMac got a lot of flak over the course of his rookie season for not being able to haul in all of Bryce's passes. At the end of the day our fourth year QB also needs to do his part to maximize the talent we have available. As far as this year. Again. WR round 1 boils down to where are we going to get the touches for the rookie? That would require eating into not only our 8th overall picks touches but also our #2 WR whom oh yeah by the way was UNDRAFTED. I am happy to discuss WR prospects here. I was thrilled we invested what we did last year in TMac because it needed to be done and it made sense from all angles. But nowhere is it written in stone that you cannot draft a good or great WR outside of the first round. Except in the Panthers building apparently. That is not a good reflection on our scouts and front office let me tell ya. Because there's no way on this earth we are going to get back to relevancy and legitimate contender status if we can't pick some gems in the later rounds. Simple and plain.
    • This is pretty accurate our offense needs more juice. I love Cooker but he’s not enough XL ummm we’ll see this year hopefully the third year WR thing hits him and he plays better but still not enough. Honestly we need look at the Eagles they just adds Wicks and Hollywood Brown to that core. That shows the level of talent needed to compete at a championship level this coming season. And this below is the real problem KC doesn’t seem to add that much to our offense. We Makai Lemon or defense at 19
