Spoke with Kurt Warner, who said #49ers Blaine Gabbert has, so far, failed to flash two must-have QB traits …
“He’s a young guy that can play football, but there are two things that I look at with quarterbacks,” said Warner, an NFL Network analyst. “First, is decision-making and his decision-making has to get better to be one of those guys that can have a long career in the National Football League. And the second thing is just his pocket presence. Understanding you don’t play in a perfect world and that you’re going to get hit. And having the ability to stand in the pocket and make throws. “If you’re not a guy like Colin Kaepernick that can elude guys, make people miss, tuck the ball and create, you have to have that presence in the pocket to understand where guys are and when you’re going to get hit. You need to have the ability to anticipate throws just before you get hit and those are things he’s struggled with early in his career.”
