Davis Webb, QB, California (formerly Texas Tech) 6'5 230 pounds | Page 11

Size, mobility, release, pretty downfield throws. He'll make a meteoric rise up the boards this year. Starred in Cal's upset win vs. Texas. Does need to work on his footwork and gets into bad habits like throwing off his back foot. Pick 6 vs. SDSU was bad. Him vs. Patrick Mahomes as draft prospects should be interesting.

Same. But Webb looks to have that cockiness that shanahan might like.

Webb.

Kizer has bust all written across his forehead. The guy might have the prototypical physical attributes, but mentally he is all wrong and that is the most important stuff of being a great QB. Terrible decision-making and he panics. His throws aren't all that cracked up to be neither. He has a huge wind-up throwing mechanics plus he consistently underthrows with accuracy issues, not to mention bad ball placement as well.

I like Webb he is a true student of the game. He will do all the required work to be the best quarterback possible.

With Pitt and Ari the only possible QB destinations, does Shanahan like Webb enough to draft him?

Davis Bust. 49ers should have drafted Lauletta.

Why not signe Webb, and allow him to learn the system and then have him compete for the 3rd or the back up spot.. He's got some talent..

He's got a strong arm. That is about it. Lack of accuracy and processing speed makes him a poor fit for this offense in particular.
