Snead said at the Draft party in LA that they wanted to trade up to take Goff after they went through several game tapes. He said one of the things that impressed them the most was his TD to INT ratio in the redzone, he was something like 42-2.
I can still remember the San Diego game a couple of seasons ago, when Hill threw that game ending INT trying to punch it in and another game vs Seattle when we turned it over on downs to end the game where we tried to run it on three downs and another fade to the corner that was so far off even though the WR was open.
In other words, even though we are going to be handing the ball off to No. 30 an awful lot, they felt they needed a QB they could trust, not only on third down, but in the Redzone.
His redzone ability and 3rd down stats were two things they talked about during the draft broadcast as well. Sure sounded good...
