Kolohe just fired off the warning shot.
That 2nd TD pass Ponder threw was pretty damn good!
I like the idea of Harbaugh mentoring this guy. I think he could be a good WCO QB.

I'm on the bandwagon.
I'm really torn between Ponder and Stanzi.

Ponder may have a slight edge with the smarts. Stanzi may have a slight edge in arm strength. Combine and pro days should be interesting.

Of course Balke could pass on both and take Andy Dalton in the 4th round.

Harder to make someone smart than it is to strengthen their arms.

I think I'm on the ponder train :)

Who said anything about the 5th or 6th rd? I didn't...I think he goes in the 2nd. That's where we should grab him...only knock on the guy is his health. He looks like a natural for the WCO...I wouldn't risk passing on him in 2nd rd. We take either Miller or Amukamara in 1st, then Ponder in 2nd. That's a great start to the draft...

Agreed.

Yeah, but if Buffalo or Arizona don't go Qb in the 1st, they'll most likely go Qb in the 2nd and it's just our luck that they'll be picking ahead of us.

Yeah, that would suck.

I like Dalton but I think we will take Ponder over the three of them.

wow. if this is not a telling sign of no good QB's from that program, i don't know what is.
did all of those guys pass through the the same system?

I see your point, but it shouldn't really matter to be honest. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut sometimes.

Can you list all the QBs from Tennessee, Michigan, Purdue, North Carolina and Cal....just for starters.
I've been on since the beginning and I'm staying on. Ponder in the 2nd/3rd.
