Every quarterback has daddy issues

There are tons of reasons to be skeptical about taking a quarterback with your first round draft choice in the NFL Draft. I mean there have been tons of documented busts with verified reasons to back up why they never should have been drafted in the first place. Ryan Leaf was a headcase. Akili Smith lacked the adaptability the NFL forces you to need. Heath Shuler sucked. Ryan Leaf was a headcase. Joey Harrington was named Joey. Ryan Leaf was a headcase.

But the San Francisco 49ers are using a different excuse for taking Georgia star Matthew Stafford off of their draft list: he wouldn’t talk to the team about his parents’ divorce. No confirmed reports on whether or not current 49ers bust Alex Smith talked about his parents, but apparently that pick is working out reeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally well in the Bay area.
