I like Driskel. At times he seems like the best quarterback on the field.

As long as he is doing it ........?

Didn't Tolzien look like the best Niner QB in the early Harbaugh days???

#49ers QB Jeff @jeffdriskel had a nice day IMO. In 1st session of 11-on-11 went 3-for-3 (100% completion rate).

Nice of him to calculate the percentage for us.

So if 1-for-1 is 100%, wouldn't 3-for-3 be 300%?

THE GOOD

5. QB Jeff Driskel. Completed 5 of 8 passes during team drills (one pass was dropped). Also made the best throw of practice – a 20-yard strike over the head of cornerback Prince Charles Iworah and into the hands of Dres Anderson while rolling left.

In the comments:

Goes through progressions efficiently. Surprisingly accurate, even when rolling out. Throws with anticipation. Protects the football. Faster and more elusive than Kaepernick.

thats nice. maybe in time he will be a respectable back up to whoever our long term guy will be.

Driskel is the one I am very interested in seeing play. Wonder if he will get the entire 4th quarter.

One can only hope that we finally find a franchise QB....

At least he measures better than previous pipe dreams. Does someone know all the other backup QBs that we thought may have something in the last 10 years?

Troy Smith - damaged good
Nate Davis - too small
Scott Tolzien - no "it" factor
David Carr - damaged goods
Trent Dilfer - mediocre
Shaun Hill - great character, but noodle arm
JTO Sullivan - pick machine
Cody Pickett - can't remember
Ken Dorsey - noodle arm?

Has the size, big arm, and speed. Will it translate to the NFL? One can only hope...

You left off an important back up QB to that list, Alex Smith.
