I just don't understand how people thought he wasn't going to be there for our late 4th rounder.

Looking through recent draft history, there are plenty of QB's drafted in the top 100 that did absolutely nothing.
I don't think this pick will set our franchise back like some people here think lol

That's a tough one. There is, after all, a copious amount of hall-of-fame keyboard GMs on the web zone.

Originally posted by Heroism:Okay, I am starting to see where this notion of "noodle arm" is coming from, and it actually doesn't stem from arm strength at all. CJ is inconsistent throwing a tight spiral, so rather than piercing through the air, the ball will wobble along its trajectory like a dying duck.
Very coachable flaw. This is actually something Steve Young talked him having to work on in his "A Football life" episode.
Things got even more embarrassing. I didn't know how to throw a football. Not properly, anyway. I had a decent arm. But no one had ever taught me the mechanics of throwing a spiral. My legs, not my arm, earned me all-state honors as a high school quarterback.
Originally posted by LifelongNiner:It's not that we lost a 7th. It's that we got a guy that was very likely available later and could have had a player that would definitely contribute more to the team in the short and long term (RB, WR, edge rusher, and maybe even an ILB).

John Lynch's opening comments:
"So, wasn't lying to you. Went back in the room and we received a call from Minnesota with an opportunity to move up from 109 to 104 and we had a quarterback that we had grown to really appreciate and we felt like it was, might he have been there at 109? That's what we had to weigh. But, at the end of the day we felt like it was worth it to go to bed knowing that we had a player that we like and want the opportunity to develop at the quarterback position. I'll let [head coach] Kyle [Shanahan] tell you more about C.J. Beathard the quarterback and what we grew to like."
Kyle Shanahan's opening comments:
"We're really excited to get an opportunity to get C.J. You never know when a guy is going to go, especially quarterbacks. Went into this very open minded. Didn't even know if we'd end up getting one today or tomorrow, but we had an idea that C.J. might go in the fourth round and for someone else to approach us and have us move up to the end of the third just for one of our seventh round picks that we've acquired. And, knowing we have nine tomorrow, it's tough using all of those going into tomorrow. We didn't want to hesitate. Go up and get a good player that we believe in. Didn't think it cost a lot in the long run. So, I'm real happy to get C.J. here."
