Will Kaepernick become like Brian Brohm?? | Page 10

9erred · 2012-06-14T06:43:59-07:00

Even though it is early, Kaepernick has had a whole off season to learn the playbook, so OTA's should be automatic for him. The other day I read how Tolzien was the most accurate out of all the qb's in practice and Kaepernick struggles. Now today I read that Kaepernick could not hit receivers all day. http://blog.sfgate.com/49ers/2012/06/13/practice-notes-kaepernicks-wayward-williams-wows/ This is prescripted drills folks with no shoulder pads. QB's should be able to have a high completion % when they are wearing a jersey that says you cannot touch me and they no there is no contact. To flat out miss receivers two days in a row leads me to believe that Harbaugh will move him down the depth chart. My new prediction is starting the season qb depth chart. 1. Alex Smith 2. Scott Tolzien- this way Tolzien gets more reps in practice. Hoping he is the UDFA steal of the year that Baalke got on the waiver wire. 3. Josh Johnson- veteran back up.

your theory worked out well and we got to a game of the super bowl so i think I will continue to adhere to that! I know that is not popular among some people but remember the right thing to think is not always the popular thing

I bet that if we had drafted Dalton with the same pick (I know he was not available) u would probably be saying the same thing about him, and we all know he's not.

Reasons Alex Smith was a "project":

--Played in a small conference (MWC)
--Played in a "gimmick" offense, may lack mechanics to run a pro system (Urban Meyer's spread option)... Alex Smith footwork 2005....

--Stats are inflated due to system.

Kapernick....

--Played in a small conference (WAC)
--Played in a gimmick offense (Nevada's pistol), mechanics.....

--Stats are inflated due to system (more so rushing in CK's case)

It is called imparted knowledge for you. Soak it in or find someone around to help you understand it.

We just have to have faith in Harbaalke and trust that they know what they are doing.

What's so hard for you to comprehend? It is a very clear statement. You think Colin is better qualified to start than Smith? And no Dalton was not a project, plus the Bengals had no better option than to start him, but Dalton at this point in his career is a better qb than Colin.
