Nice, even better. Throw them at family members.
I put this in the Lance thread discussing the difference between the players experience operating an offense - which I think it's extremely important and why Brock came in so efficient and effective.

brock played 35 games in high school a lone. Threw 8.9k yards, 828 pass attempts, 107 passing touchdowns (31 picks). He had another 360 rushing attempts for 2.4K rushing yards and 20 rushing touchdowns. That's just highschool.

then Brock played 48 games in college, 1467 passing attempts, 12k passing yards, 81 touchdowns (33 int), 365 rushing attempts for 1200 yards & 19 rushing touchdowns.

trey didn't even have 100 pass attempts in all of highschool. Then only 318 all of college. Couple that with his 100 passes in the league - that's some serious serious inexperience operating an offense. Like really really inexperienced. So how many reps does he need here to get really good? I'm not saying he can't but he's always been way behind the 8 ball.

The answer to your question is well into his 2nd contract

I agree, I said it in the Lance thread but I think that's the biggest thing working against Lance now - besides Purdy balling lol. He most likely won't be starting the next two seasons to get the experience he desperately needs to learn how to operate this offense at a high level, he was supposed to be half way through that right now but an unfortunate injury.

we have Brock on a $1M a year contract for the next three seasons - so Lance would have to play at an extremely high level to beat him out. Lance will cost $25-$30M (fully guaranteed) 3 seasons from now, If we execute his fifth year option, and that's a year our salaries bloat.

i think if Lance played he would get better but I don't see how he gets to Brock's level, because of how inexperienced he is, without playing a season or two.

we will see how it plays out. I just hope we have health on our side this year.

I like Rich - he usually speaks highly of the 49ers and is always so optimistic. When he knocks teams, he does it in the funniest but friendlist way - I find it hilarious. He seems like he would be an awesome neighbor. hahaha

I think you are right about the neighbor thing lolol. Not the "get off my lawn!" type for sure. Haha. More like, "We are having a BBQ, come on over, I can look at your car with that noise it's making". Have some lemonade, shoot the breeze lol

For all the folks posting things saying you can learn anything or develop anything at the QB position - Kyle himself said "either you have it or you don't" when it comes to certain mental aspects of playing qb. Lol I've been saying this for a while, there are aspects of playing qb at an elite level that can't be learned. I'm not saying Lance doesn't have it, but the argument that anytbing can be learned is false. A lot of things can be learned/developed but not everything, especially the mental side.

I don't know of anyone saying a QB can learn anything. It's not possible to learn how to run fast or have a strong arm. The fact Kyle agrees that some things can't be learned tells me that he thinks Trey already has these traits.

If he drafted him, you better hope he believes that. Lol i don't see why he wouldn't believe that. This wasn't an underhanded shot at Lance. lol just that debate of "anyone can learn/develop all aspects of being a great qb". When it comes to Lance, my personal thoughts - I haven't SEEN it but that doesn't mean it's not there. He's played such little amount of football in his life that it could be there but it hasn't come out. But in the film And everything throughout his life that I've watched of him, I haven't seen what I feel like are those instincts/mental side of playing when at an elite level. Doesn't mean it isn't there - I just personally don't think it's shown through in his film yet. I'm hoping now that he is healthy and much more experienced in our system and competing Etc - that it shines through. I sometimes worry that he's too chill and nice. Lol which are awesome qualities but idk if they are for a qb.

i don't get that "maniac" feel from him. For example, Bree's, Brady, Rodgers, manning etc - they are nice guys etc when you listen to them talk but you just know underneath they're more intense and serious than cancer. They're maniacs about the game. It's almost intimidating. If that makes sense.
im just saying that when it comes to the mental/instinctual side of the game, not everything can be learned or handled. Either you can or you can't, if you can't - doesn't mean they're dumb or not decent QBs. Just means they'll never be great. Essentially, game managers and that's why most players are game managers.

everyone likes to think we are all equal and it's just not true. We are all wired different mentally and our minds work differently.

take Jimmy for example, he has numerous years of top notch coaching, playing experience, and players around him - there is a certain level he's never got over. He has all the physical ability (he isn't a freak but he isn't a dud either, Kyle said he's an amazing thrower of the ball).

If you're wired right and have the physical ability - then yes, it's just time and work before you can get there. I think Bree's is a great example.

there are just mental and instinctual aspects you have to have to be great, your physical ability won't overcome that and you can't just get it. It'll always be a limitation for players who don't have it. Whatever the hell "it" is.

I don't think anyone knows if you have "it" after a couple games either. Especially when you didn't exactly have "it" after 4 years of college football.

the QB situation will works itself out. I will not be shocked if all 3 play at some point and the leash for all them isn't exactly long imo.

My point in posting that wasn't that Brock has it or Lance does/doesn't. It's the point that there are things that can't be learned. I've seen it brought up on here many times that anyone can develop/learn any aspect of playing qb. I'm saying that isn't true.

i think you're 100% right that we can't say any qb on our roster definitely has "it".
