At a time when everyone agrees there aren't nearly enough quarterbacks to go around, most of the NFL has decided to only bother with two at a time.

THing with Kaepernick is he's kind of a one trick pony. You'd have to orient your offense around the pistol. Not many teams can donthat for a backup.

As for our guys, I like Hill better despite his age. Dude runs a 4.4. To me that suggests that when his physical skills start to deteriorate with age, he'll tend to have a longer decline, since he's slowing down from 4.4, not 4.8. Plus he doesn't play like this level is too big for him. Higher ceiling than Callahan. Callahan has been thru the "QB school," so that's his advantage.

Why carry more? Just sign another if the needs arises. Leaves a spot for somebody who will probably actually play.

I wish Hundley had lit it up in pre season. We could've dealt him and then kept Hill.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."
