I know this isn't the main point, but I'd just like to say that Kaepernick did have a much better knack for connecting on the deep ball than Alex Smith did. I think ESPN or PFF had an interesting metric that showed Kaepernick had the best deep ball completion among starters beyond 30 or 40 yards. Kaepernick also has more velocity on his throws which has helped and hurt him at times.

Brodeur · 03-03-2013, 07:53 PM

Let's take another way of looking at it...

Smith has a beautiful face. It's proportionate, the eyes are sparkling and a tremendous color, his smile is weak for this specific picture but he's shown elite smiling intangibles before so I believe this is an anomaly. Overall, a fantastic looking human being and could get any girl or guy out there regardless of career, choice, definite 8/10 at worst, could easily pass for a 9.

Seems like he has a gentle face, but Kaep really has some issues here. First of all, that nose. It's absolutely a monster, way bigger than any natural nose should ever be. Instead of going to his solid to above average smile, you notice that nose immediately. It's distracting and costs him big time, huge negative. He has really overrated facial hair as well, not helping his facial structure's weaknesses or distracting from them as well. Would I sleep with him just based on his face? That's the key question here, and I honestly couldn't say yes or no because of the weaknesses. Overall, a 6/10 at best, more inclined to go to 5/10.

i thought it was impossible to take a thread that has been pushed to the ground and push it even further, but it has.

vidae · 03-03-2013, 08:54 PM

I can get behind that kind of scouting Brody.

jballa838 · 03-03-2013, 09:10 PM

What Brodeur also fails to mention is Alex Smith has a much better sounding name for a QB. If anything, it's almost too common, but Kaepernick? That's so tough to spell!

Dr. Gonzo · 03-03-2013, 09:15 PM

Alex Smith will prove most of you wrong and have a big year.

Jvig43 · 03-03-2013, 09:52 PM

What the hell? Superman and Captain America? Way to pick Dc's and Marvel's most boring characters. That certainly hurts Smith's case here.

Halsey · 03-03-2013, 10:00 PM

Everytime I glance over this thread I read it as "Alex Smith is a Child" and then do a double take. Someone edit the thread title, please.

jballa838 · 03-03-2013, 10:07 PM

Guys. He just looks like a pro bowl QB.

Dr. Gonzo · 03-03-2013, 10:11 PM

Looking forward to the big screen adaptation of Alex Smiths life starring Ryan Gosling. It will be Drive meets football.

Drive is a godtier movie, so I'm excited.

The mediocrity is being stressed so much, but I just can't shake the feeling that this will either go really well a la Brees in New Orleans or (more likely) Alex will struggle and **** will get really bad while the Raiders take Geno and cruise to a 9-7 to 11-5 season.

With the receiving weapons the Raiders have, an "on" QB could easily take them to a high level. This **** just doesn't sit right. Definitely feels like the Chiefs really ****** up...like they were trying to figure out how to **** up worse than any team in NFL history.

Oakland really just needs a TE and a RB on offense. WR depth would help, but they're a pretty loaded offense if they take care of the former. With ~6 picks in the first 4 rounds, they can really load up. Eifert/Ertz in the second then grab a Michael Ford or Jonathan Franklin at RB with one of the other picks and spend the rest on defense.

Ryan Gosling can QB my team any day.

Any by QB I mean have sex with.

And by team I mean anus.

Saints-Tigers · 03-03-2013, 10:43 PM

I'm one of those guys that wants almost all prospects to pan out, unless they are Titus Young level dumb.

I hope Smith does do well, wishing ill on other men is pretty low. I just wouldn't bet the house on it.

Brodeur, Alex Smith or Brady Quinn?

They should make it so that Gosling's acting ability reflects Alex's production throughout his career.

For the first 90 minutes of the film, Gosling can only communicate using crude grunts and clicks. He'll constantly walk into stationary objects and fall down. For the last ten minutes, he can speak at a high school graduate level and only stub his toe when he walks into ****.

I guess I'll do a Brady Quinn scouting report while at work here...

Let us get this out of the way: Brady Quinn is an incredibly handsome man. He has a face chiseled out of stone almost, and the structure is perfection. He has had blemishes on his face in the past, but I cannot let that take away from his general incredible face. However, there's two flaws that come into play when looking at his face, at least in comparison to Alex Smith: his hair and his eyes. At times, his hair has looked terrific and suitable for a 10/10 tier QB. But far too often he has a 9 year old boy's haircut, and it detracts severly from his well mannered face. Finally, there is his eyes. Now look, I can't deny that I'm an eye man. I go straight for a person's eyes and if they have beautiful eyes, I'm mush. The problem with Quinn is simple, his eyes are bland. They don't jump out at you, and they're just a boring brown. I can't call something like that any other way. Contrast that to Alex Smith, who has amazing eyes that just sparkle wherever you go. Because of this, I have to knock him down to an 8/10.

Current rankings:
Alex Smith
Brady Quinn
Colin Kaepernick

I always see it as "Alex Smith is a Chef."

If someone finds a shirtless pic of Alex Smith, I'll do full extensive scouting reports on all of those 3 as well as Matt Cassell. It will help determine the ultimate winner of those 4 (probably Quinn but we shall see).

Monomach · 03-04-2013, 12:20 PM

So, so close...

10 seconds later, Kaepernick took Smith from behind. You can tell with the way they're looking at each other.

These scouting reports are redeeming you in this thread for me. You should contact Scott about taking over his scouting report duties, I feel like your insight would give us a different approach to things. Also, I think Quinn over takes Smith here. Quinn has the commercial endorsements going for him, "NOW IM DONE!"
