Thanks Jacksonville.

You inflated Kaeps numbers and he is once again, over rated.

Cant stand him. Any QB would look alot better than they actually are on that team. Seems like every player is a pro bowler. Especially their offensive line. Gets under my skin like no other.

I know how you feel. 

 

Anytime he as to show patience in the pocket, he looks like a Wild Tatted Chicken, the way he shuffles his feet, gets fidgety, and obviously uncomfortable, then bolts!!

 

But they don't trust him anymore, and have shown they can win with him the same way they did with Alex Smith last year as essentially a game manager (with his wheels as a added dimension).

To the OP:

It would help (unless I'm missing it), to separate the passing TD's from total TD's, though I know you're being fair and including "total turnovers" as well.

I disagree.

With QBs like Cam, Wilson, Kaepernick, Griffin, and even Luck as the new "young guns" in this league (throw in Pryor and Smith and others as well if you wish), production from their legs is an integral part of their game. Next time I may provide rush yards or just add it with passing for total yards. Its a new day with these QBs.

If you wish to grade them on their arm alone, I'd be excited to see your own post providing that information.

I asked, cause I think Cam is a better pocket QB than all these guys, and it's still good to know the passing stats/separate them.

 

It's all good.

    • I can see Cooper being a target. Wouldn’t be bent out of shape but obviously not a preference if we’re talking position picked — but I’m just looking for impact. And man, this draft class is an odd bunch in our range. Has these really talented hybrid Slot/Safeties, McDonald (but I think I liked Tyleik more the other year), Faulk (huge work in progress), Saddiq (TE in R1?), and some interesting but wildly different profiling OTs. Our biggest needs: ILB, 3-4 DE, S/Slot (à la Branch), OT, WR, and TE The WRs here would be a notable impact add.  I personally don’t have a position I am pining for. I see Thieneman, Cooper, McDonald, and McNeil-Warren as my faves right now but it could change.  Iheanachor is a sleeper at OT over Proctor, Miller and others. A big eye-of-the-beholder year. It would take a major reach for me to be ticked with the pick bc there’s just too big a range of players, positions and types this draft. Unpopular: Honestly, I kind of love the idea of just trading up for Styles if he slips to 8/9. It’s not a year where capital is going to be lofty.     
    • I have wanted to do that since I first looked at the draft order and the crop of players.  A lot of it is, just not that impressed with the selection we are likely to have at 19. And then when I learned how good some of these ILBs are I never bought that we could sit at 51 and get one. So trading back helps us have a chance to move up for one of those guys. 
    • I would pass, dude is 30 and would require using a draft pick to get.  Maybe if we were in season and having a better year than expected and see the need for a CB, but right now no.
