Being short is not what made Pat White a bad player. And being 6'4 doesn't make Kaepernick a good player. That seems relatively straightforward but a "taller Pat White" is just a taller player who sucks.
I've seen Kaepernick in pieces of games and watched the entire bowl game against Boston College and have not at any time been impressed with him. CK put it best when he said that watching him, it was hard to shake the feeling that you just weren't watching an NFL quarterback. That's how I felt exactly. He looks and moves like a big wide receiver and has a funky release, plays in the pistol offense and his accuracy can at times be scattershot. Those saying he played with bad talent simply don't know what they're talking about, either. For the MAC conference, Nevada was a very talented team.
Now, I've got to go back and watch more before I come to any hard conclusions. Fortunately, there's plenty of stuff available out there.
