Personally I think he turns his season around and does play better, starting tonight..Also don't you think the bc Its almost a fact that he will tear it up the combine is going to boost his stock if he doesn't turn his season around..? lol I say turn his season around like hes having a horrible season..

He's got to, he wouldn't be the first QB we've seen go from an expected top 3 pick to falling down the draft boards in one season. I still expect him to be a Top 10 pick but he has to improve his accuracy.

So far hes looking very good, I don't think he has missed a throw yet, still only 3rd quarter tho and idk if BCs defense is good or not but they are getting beat up pretty bad tonight

I think he will let loose as time goes on. He will slowly realize he doesn't have to be perfect to cement a top stock, but just keep doing what he has been doing the last 2 years and show why he was highly rated.

This scares me though, that he plays like this, worrying about his draft spot.

That SCREAMS to me another conservative quarterback mindset that weve already seen way to much in the last decade+

With all that said and I agree he hasn't been what at least I expected so far I think he still has a chance to go number 1, and honestly I would be very happy if the niners draft him, I still feel he will be great in Kellys scheme..

I think realistically right now, a lot of folks have him as the #3 QB. If he can't get his performance turned out, it will hurt his draft stock. Usually when you look at QB's, you look at guys that improved every single year in college, not a guy who substantially fell off his final year. He needs to get back to playing the way he did last season.

Watson is the most pro-ready and I think he can come right in and start and do a good job. Kizer has the biggest upside. But overall I think Kaaya will be the best PRO QB in the long-run. I like all 3 guys though.

I don't see conservative...they are undefeated and he's avg 262 yards a game,3 TDs per game, and has a 61% comp percentage. It looks like he's not running the ball as much which is a big part of that offensive scheme.

It also looks like he's beefed up a little which is a good thing.
