I think people just figured we might draft a QB because it seemed like Kap was on thin ice last year. He didnt have a great year (nobody really did), he was Harbaugh's guy, and there was rumors about Baalke asking around the league for a trade.
Im hoping this draft proves that the 49ers are going to stick with Kap. I think they would be complete fools to give up on him already.
Agree! He has incredible upside still and if they surround him with all the pieces I expect major improvement. Plus...there were no QBs in the draft that were better than he is, not even Winston and Marriotta. I thought they would pick up a vet and they still might toward TC...although Baalke says not.
If he doesn't improve this year I would expect a major effort to bring in competition next year. Next year's group of QBs don't look much better though unless there are quite a few underclassmen out.
