Vernon Adams in the 6th?

[Denim Chicken]

Worth one of our 6 rounders?

He's an athlete, that's for sure. I'm just leery of Oregon QBs for obvious reasons, but worth a flyer, sure. Maybe he develops and then you've got a hyper-athletic mobile QB.

Yeah, that guy drafted last year sure can't play

One guy with a mediocre rookie season doesn't mean every dude coming out is going to be a second overall selection, what the ****, man.

 

[DogFace]

He's worth a 6. I'd love to snag a very athletic guy with a pick that, many times, doesn't make the roster and see what he can be. We've done worse than him with late picks.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

There are some out there that believe he would be drafted a lot higher if not for his height. Some really like him. That one guy from 105.3 the fan is a big fan of his...Jeff Cavanaugh (sp?)


Also...I think he only played one year at Oregon so maybe he is a bit different lol.

I don't know...After a long day there is nothing better than a hot shower.

I have always maintained that if you can't find a starting caliber backup QB, then give me a mobile QB who can get first downs with his legs and slow the pass rush down as they make every effort to hold contain and lanes. A backup QB who can get a few first downs by running gives your offense extra attempts at scoring.

 

[Gaede]

Yes. He can be our long term backup. Very big fan of that idea.

I have always been interested in that strategy. If you are lucky enough to have a true franchise QB, it is highly unlikely that you can also find a solid back up that can do the same things your #1 can do, so why not get one of these mobile QB's as your back up? It would not be that hard to put a decent sized package together for him and it would give the defense fits as they were preparing for your conventional starter all week. Normally, I would not want a run first QB as my starter, but to fill in for a game or two, I think its an intriguing idea.

Suddenly you got something against undersized QB's that will never be anything more than a backup?

Put your biases away. I get it, you don't like Oregon. But it is just plain pigheaded to not like players because of their school.

But when a guy comes in and posts a 91.5 PR for an awful team with a terrible oline and no running game, then you've clearly got someone who is a bit more than mediocre.

Watched Oregon a plenty.....he's a one read QB....and if it's not there...he's a deer in headlights looking to run. He's gonna get killed on this level when he takes off.

 

[RandyOh]

no but im all for bringing him in as our main UDFA target if he is not drafted.

 

[MonsterD]

It would be fine if you can stow him away for 2 years see if he can be a backup or better.

I actually love Oregon, I just don't like the idea of their quarterbacks at the next level.

But, as I've said - a 6th round pick on Vernon Adams could be a potential steal.

 

[RS12]

I think he ends up in SF.

yep...nice kid but no WAY does he rate a 6th rounder. Can't even see over the line and he doesn't have the arm. He's a UFA all the way.
