There is no such thing as too short.
But, seriously San Diego, the kid had a good game.
He was 6 or 9 for 72 yards and 1 touchdown. He completed 66 2/3 % of his passes. His ESPN rating was 128.
I share your frustration with the proclivity for premature preseason-based proclamations, but give the kid some credit.
He is a 7th round pick playing in his first NFL game. He did well. I am glad for him and I hope he continues to do well. 
He held the ball multiple times too long and got sacks that he didn't need to get. He looked lost and very late on read, recognition and decision making. He had 1 good throw down the sideline for a TD against 4th stringers.....
So what? I'm not going to anoint him. I need to see more.
Hahaha. Its amazing how soon people forget. Last year everyone was annoiting Tolz as being better against Kaep and that tolz should have taken over for Alex when Alex went down. All based on what Tolz did against the niners in preseason and preseason when he was with the niners. All of which was against 3rd and 4th stringers. Not taking into account what we AND the reporters don't see at closed practices. So I agree not to annoit him and would like to see him against the 2nd stringers at least.
However, I will not sell him short (pun intended) merely because of his height. If the guy can play, the guy can play. After Kaep, he has the best arm strength of the three. I will say this, Tolz has had two seasons too learn the system and should show more. Colt has experience and shows more athletcism than Tolz, this is important when the line breaks down. Daniels is even more athletic than he. He is raw and is still learning and you always want the #3 to be someone that has potential that you can develope. Tolz had that chance. He is either going to beat out Colt or be cut. He is not going be vying for the number 3. Colt's disadvantage is that he is only in his first year with the niners. Both however, are going to be gone after this year. Another thing about Daniels is that he is not a one trick pony and can be played at RB or flanker etc. for trick plays, something that is a plus.
So in reality there is only the battle between Colt and Tolz, forget number two. Cause Daniels might not make it to practice squad if the niners try to sneak him that way. Also, Russell Wilson was never given a chance against Flynn, so never underestimate someone when you don't know there psych and heart, especially if they got talent.
