    It was an inviting thought, that last year's sixth round pick might be good enough to be an NFL starter. He appears to have the attitude one wants from a QB. So, make him the backup and let's see what happens.

    But that is not the case. Last year's sixth round pick plays about as well as a typical sixth round QB. Whereas Charlie Whitehurst is at least a competent NFL backup. Last year's sixth round pick might one day be an NFL QB, but that day is not today.

    Time to promote Whitehurst to where he should have been all along.

    I don't know why people won't even entertain the idea that Whitehurst at least belongs in the NFL. He was our best QB last year.

    Before this week I would've said no way. After that clunker today, I say absolutely. Wasn't CBJ brought in because he was so knowledgeable in Whiz's system anyway? I really don't think you can even say Meckenburger is better or more talented than CBJ at this point anyway.

    All Mett has going for him is a big arm. That's literally it. Big arms are a dime a dozen.

    Whitehurst is as good as he'll ever be, not really worth investing in. Mett sucks but there's still time for the light to come on...

    Like I've been saying since we drafted Mariota, should've traded Mett the first chance we had. There was absolutely nothing good that came from us keeping him.

    Sell high..

    Well he was indeed the best QB we had last year. He was brought in to be a vet backup and never should have lost that position.

    I would trade him (before the Nov.3 deadline) for a powerback, straight up. Somebody probably still loves his arm and thinks they can make a starter out of him. I'd send him to San Fran and even throw in a 3rd or 4th Rd pick (or Sankey) for Carlos Hyde. There are a lot of calls in SF to bench Kaepernick.
