I'm pulling for a Nassib type in round 2 being given a year to develop on the bench behind Fitzpatrick, who I would like to see us retain, given that there are no better options available to us in FA (and if there were, it's unlikely they'd want to come to a franchise intent on drafting a qb early) and it's silly to believe a team with a strong backup who's starter missed games with a concussion is likely to trade away that backup.

I see that name come up a bit. I haven't watched him as much as the others but from what I saw he seemed like a less polished version of Glennon. Do you thing Nassib is better or just available in a later round?

Glennon has a much better arm than Nassib. Nassib has to sit an entire year and just get coached up. He has NO IDEA how to control his arm speed. Has zero touch on his throws.

I don't watch as much college football as many here, but I don't like Glennon's 57% completion and 14 picks. Jones is the guy I'm most interested in right now, but I think there are a lot of guys that are going to have a chance to be good and available at #8 or #40 for us, without any Andrew Luck we are sad to miss out on in this draft.

Bad receivers..dropping balls as much as 10 in one game.A horrible o-line and fired coach hurt Glennon this year.Last year completed 66 % of passes. Landry on the other hand chokes in big games and can`t throw a deep ball on target. Glennon bigger arm and much better deep ball. He will go before Landry.

Nassib looks to be among the best of a class very weak at the top, but a ton of guys who should be taken between the end of round 1 and the end of round 3.

 

His pluses: Big arm, excellent pocket pressence, super quick release, mobile enough to make downfield plays with his feet but heady enough to look pass-first, has the ability to make all the throws, cold weather passer.

 

His minuses: has busy feet, double and triple clutches his throws, pats the ball tipping his read progression, locks onto his recievers more often than he should, struggles to make the short touch passes, general lack of polish.

 

I think as far as value goes, he's the best developmental prospect coming out this year. Most of his flaws are things that should be correctable with good coaching, and his upside is one of the best of this draft.

What if we were to trade Fitz & a pick to SF for Smith? That way if whoever we draft needs time to develop, or doesn't get it done, we've got a guy who's maybe not spectacular, but solid to play QB and let our playmakers make plays. It would be a good move for SF b/c they get a solid veteran b/u who isn't disgruntled and gain a pick in the process (I'm thinking 4th?). Anyone think they'd go for it?

 

Isn't Smith's arm strength an issue?

Alex Smith is a chump. Did you really just hear about him after Harbaugh got some mileage out of him. Really, Fitz and Smith are the same. And you would trade for that loser?

Exactly correct. For people on here like me who want an elite franchise qb to take over, asking for Alex smith makes no sense. He's a game manager just like fitz and IMO is worse than fitz but has had a better d. Yes BPA I'm admitting I was wrong about fitz btw lol
