Jaren Hall 'crisp' and 'impressive'

Not trying to jump the shark here, but so far so good with the rookie QB. He's like a Russ Wilson lite vibe dude. Mature kid. Hard worker. Keep an eye on this guy.

No doubt. People praising him like he's the next Joe Montana is ridiculous. He looked good, but I want to see him do it again, when defenses have some film, before I'm a believer.But it's not important what I think. The 49ers believe they have their QBOTF. And the odds of finding him with the last pick in the 7th round are astronomical. It's just luck. A shot in the dark. They don't get lucky there, the 49ers are not serious contenders.
Maybe they have the QBOTF. Purdy went to work pre-draft with Sage Rosenfels who played for Shanahan and kinda got the cheat code for how to run his offense, which is a big part of why he looked good. But like you I want to see how he does when everyone's had a year to look at the film.
Plus he's got Kittle/Deebo/Aiyuk/McCaffrey around him with one of the top OL's in the league. Let's see him in 2025 when the Niners cap situation is where the Vikings have been the last couple years. Still he's already waaaay overacheived for pick #256.

But have to agree once there are some films and tendencies exposed, then we will see how good he is.
High hopes for Hall. I liked him as a second tier prospect. At the very least hoping he gives us an upgrade at the backup position which is something we've lacked most of the last decade
Hall had some learning moments yesterday for sure with increased practice time with Mullins dealing with a family matter. That's good for his development to be put in some situations that he didn't perform well in. He's developmental. He's still learning to call plays in a huddle, something he's never done before.

Smaller Pockets, Smaller Windows, Less time to throw, Big asz KOC playbook
Definitely a work in progress..
