Kaepernick- like the pairing with Harbaugh.
Dalton- Just hoping he doesn't "John Beck" it.
Ponder- A Pennington upside isn't all that bad in this QB class.
Gabbert- Not sold on, but he will get his chance eventually.

1. Kaepernick. Great tools(Arm, legs, IQ) to go along with a QB coach guru.
2. Gabbert. Enough IQ to make it plus he also has some nice intangibles
3. Ponder. Seems like a Chad Pennington type of guy that will have a long career but never be a stud.
4. Mallett. Bill will make something out of him. Matt Cassell at the very least

Not saying Cassel is a stud, but if you think that is Mallets floor, should he be above a guy you think might be the next Pennington?

I almost included him. I just figured that ranking 7 would be enough. Didn't know I'd be limited to 4. Thanks for ranking them all.
You got to wait so long on him. How many have that patience. And I think Penny career >>> Cassell to this point. I just see bust more on Dalton because no arm. Newton. Just has Jamarcus type behaviour and non NFL game. Locker. Accuracy issue will not be fixed.
Trump Tight

Hehe, Gabbert is the second and the fourth best QB, but is in fifth place for third.

Well if you think this will be the rankIngs of the best careers you will be in for a huge disappointment IMO. I think Stanzi is one of the worst backup QBs in the NFL.
