I mean, the team already made the playoffs, so the drought is over, right? Let's take a few years (or decades!) trying to develop mid and late round QB prospects...we got all the time in the world, kids.

He doesn’t hit those outside routes with enough zip. Possible, but I don't think the pick lacked zip. The DB is one of the best in the league. I give him some credit.

However I like his game so far for a 5th rounder 1
Prickly Pete Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Its true, there is a lot to be excited about with this kid. He's no ordinary 5th round QB prospect! I think we all agree that he is just a kid. Edited January 8, 2018 by OJABBA 1

Green Lightning Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 That was a hell of a defensive play. Pass a bit high but a great D play. He connected on a 4th and long earlier. I think he's got upside. 1

Let's take a few years (or decades!) trying to develop mid and late round QB prospects...we got all the time in the world, kids. The best quarterback on the roster will be the starting QB. No one will be handed the job. Could be Peterman, Alex Smith or another veteran, or a rookie.

Do I think there is a chance..and a chance that he can be a very good start in the NFL? Yep, I think there is a chance. Draft a QB next year, bring in a vet, and have them compete with Peterman. The problem was never Peterman. He has talent. He's a pocket passer that requires a pocket Oline. We have an oline used to protecting a scrambling qb. We need to overhaul this oline. Draft another high round pocket passer to go with Nate. Then start moving pieces around on the Oline.

Lot's to look forward to with this Peterman kid.

I wouldn't care if we had Darnold AND Rosen in training camp, you would still have to give this Peterman kid his shot.

I'm sure it was totally available!

I always think back to Brian Brohm, and what could have been , if the kid was just given a chance to develop. I don't wanna see that happen to this Peterman kid, too. Edited January 8, 2018 by OJABBA

Yeah the LA game was a debacle, he played well in a blizzard. Give him time to develop. I'm not opposed to drafting another QB which their are no guarantees will be successful. I would love to see our qb room contain (Peterman, & Rudolph). So it takes an act of God to get a passable game from Peterman?
Ayjent Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 I think people get excited to see a guy who throws a good pass from the pocket on a timing route. It’s something that Tyrod doesn’t do very often. I get it. However, Peterman lacks presence in the pocket and looks like he has a weak arm. Those things just don’t improve much for QBs, and honestly that is a really bad combo unless you’ve got the best OL in the NFL. That’s also why he has thrown so many picks in so few throws: bad presence in the pocket combined with weak armed throws under pressure. It’s not hate, it’s just what he is and it’s not a NFL caliber QB.
