Scott Tolzien is a Niner

You guys won't believe this but my Grandfather has cancer and I sent him Tolzien's preseason tapes and now he still has cancer.

Tolzier doesn't cure cancer, FYI.

I've heard his arm is made of titanium and Zak Keasey's dandruff.

redundant.

Just to be a sane mind here and not overtly support one QB or the other. The Yorks and the 9er organization as whole are putting all their weight behind Harbaugh and Baalke not any of their particular draft picks. Sure their goal is to BUILD the best team possible whether it be in the draft or free agency. Logic dictates that we needed a 1st or 2nd round QB but I've always said it wouldn't matter who we draft because Harbaugh and Baalke did it to appease the fan base(admit it we would've rioted outside of the 49ers HQ if they didn't take a QB on day 1). We could be biding our time to snatch up Luck, Barkley, Jones, Tannehill or Foles in next years draft, or maybe Jim is waiting on Josh Johnson to become a free agent, we no doubt tried to talk trade but the Buc's made it clear that they won't give him up unless it was an asinine amount of picks and players because they are rolling with only 2 QBs going into week 1.

I'm in no way saying a 6th round talent is equivalent to a 2nd rounder but if we we're loyal to the end with our draft picks Ronald Johnson would've made the team, especially with his WR coach form college being his pro coach. To bring up free agency we are obviously not happy with our LB group's depth, we pursued Aaron Maybin after already signing Applewhite(nothing would light a fire under a players ass then trying to bring in someone like Maybin but you have to wonder what we saw in Maybin to make a play for him), secondly we believed in Tavares Gooden's skills enough to talk trade with Baltimore and we ended up signing him as a FA this morning(Kristick was cut to make room for Tolzien so it will be very interesting to see who they cut to make room for Gooden), It's safe to say that no matter where a player is acquired, whether it be in the 1st round or an undrafted free agent that our coaching staff is doing their due diligence to find true football players.

I believe in Harbaugh and Baalke not Kaepernick or Tolzien. They are building the best team that they can and doing their way, have faith that in the end the better player will win out, regardless of their draft status or how big their weekly paycheck is.

I've got to f**k to your mother tonight so no backrub tonight Son.

Well I'm sure you can't get it up anymore, just go ahead and tell her some of your great QB stories and she'll be asleep in no time.

Smith is only a placeholder. Harbaugh is going to look for guys that will perform in his system.

Nice developmental prospect. Tolzien is a good fit for the West Coast Offense. But our depth at QB is Alex Smith and two rookies? Seriously?

It seems Harubaugh is putting the season on Smiths shoulders (literally & figuratively). If Smith doesn't work out, it looks as if we are taking this as a rebuilding year. I don't see how Harbaugh would expect us to make the play-offs with such little experience at the 2 and 3.

You do realize they can resign McCown if Smith goes down, or one of the many other vet QBs likely not to have jobs?

I think they just saw that Tolzien has some talent and Geep Chryst (the QB coach) is the brother of the OC coach for Wisconsin, so he is probably pretty familiar with him and thinks highly of him, so they wanted to claim him before another team did. The Niners wanted this guy before camp, but Tolzien chose San Diego.

The Niners desperately need a QB of the future, so having lots of young guys around to evaluate isn't such a bad thing.

Good points !

I liked
McCowen as a 3rd qb, way better than Carr, who strangely ended up back in NY, backing up Eli.(boy they better help eli stays healthy. Then we get Tolzien from SD, who really did look good either running 1st, 2nd or 3rd string O. Whatever, we have upgraded the QB position. Makes no difference tho until we have an OL that can block. NOnetheless, our Qb situation is way better with kap on bench for a yr and Tolzien on PS.

Tolzien cannot be placed on the PS. If you pick someone up from another team, you must place them on the 53 man roster.

D_ _ n_ _ r_ _ d. LOL

Nuns, correction noted. Our QB situation is way better with kap on the bench for a yr and Tolzien backing up.

Nice addition for future.

Wake up and smell the ROSES!!!

After the game, when Norv and Harbaugh meet in the middle of the field, Harbaugh told Norv "I like your third...", and Norv quickly quipped - "He's your's"!
Harbaugh went home and immediately got rid two of his QBs. End of story! This is my story.
