Thank you.... So I missunderstood you! Sorry ...

Thanks for the links... l'll try them, as soon aus I get home.

Actually I am an Oregon Duck, studied there, so I would love to see Adams succeed with "my 49ers"

I'm a Duck fan and caught a lot of games this year. I always thought athletically he looked like a short stop playing football. He usually got up kind of gingerly after just about every hit and I was always worried he would get hurt. He also needed to scramble sometimes not to avoid pressure, but to create his own passing lanes.

He's an interesting proposition but I don't really see it....

Interesting point of view on Twitter.

Slightly taller, better built, bigger hands, stronger arm, more accurate, more athletic......but otherwise they are the same guy.

Just spoke with former Oregon QB Vernon Adams Jr. (@vadams_qb), who said he got his NFL Combine invite this morning.

I'm gonna have to say no on this one. He has all the signs of a "college" qb. He lacks any fundamentals, the guy bounces around the pocket and doesn't sense pressure very well. He's very jumpy. His footwork is very poor. Comparisons to Russell Wilson are way off base to me. Go watch RW in college. He was the real deal. The ONLY thing holding him back was his height. Mel Kiper even said "if there was any (small qb) who could make it, it would be this guy". This guy is much more Troy Smith than RW.
