I love the pick but wouldn't call it the QB of the Future. Let's be real. We didn't draft him thinking we found Tom Brady. We found a very good college QB who has the smarts to be a competent backup. He'll most likely be third string this year and compete with Chase for second string next year.
Don't get me wrong I love the pick. But I think Alex Smith is our franchise QB. Chase Daniel has the brain and has learned the NFL offenses well enough to be a valued backup. Murray has a long way to go to top Chase let alone be a franchise qb.

I guess time will tell if he is the QOTF. I tend to be on the optimistic side of this. He has the intangibles to be a fine starting NFL QB. His size and injury held him back from being mentioned as one of the top QBs' in this years draft.
His size doesn't really bother me, as Drew Brees and Russel Wilson has shown height isn't always a good indicator. I see Murray eventually settling into the number 2 slot, not because I don't like Chase (Im a Mizzou fan afterall) but because of his salary. Murray will get his chance to be the starter.
You can think of Murray as a backup QB all you want, but I see more. I see a very smart QB that can make NFL throws, tough as nails, and has the strength and will power to be successful. You are cutting the kid short (no pun intended) and feel we have a true gem on our hands.
