I highly doubt Kaepernick will start right off the bat. He will be groomed and eased in. I'm very confident Alex Smith will be back this year, and I'm OK with it now. That is, unless they get McNabb, Bulger or Palmer. Kolb is out of the picture now.
u never know? Would be hilarious if we signed Bulger for a year while CK learns, Arizona would be really screwed.
What type of offense does Nevada play in? Was it similar to what Smith was in @ Utah?

This kid has everything; he's cool under pressure, intelligent, cannon arm, elusive, can avoid the run, and evades only when he needs to. Very, very special talent; he's going to ride the bench and learn the WCO, gonna be a franchise QB in 2 years.

Nice! I'm no draft guru, but I liked what I saw from this dude. Welcome to the Niners!

Not at all. I don't think they ever planned on taking Dalton in the first place. I think Denver gave them a decent offer on trading up and they jumped in front to grab Kaepernick before the Cardinals or the Raiders beat them to it.

Nope sorry, Williamson was a scout/recruiting coordinator for the University of Pitt and then a scout for the Browns. Now he's analyst for ESPN and a host on the Football Today podcast.

I think Harbaugh wanted Kaep the entire time.

Not sure how I feel about the pick. Anyone know what we gave up to move up in the draft?

I actually think they wanted CK, but knew Dalton would be picked first. As soon as someone picked Dalton, they knew they had to move up to get CK.
Just my gut, though.

Really weird spread type hybrid, not an Urban Meyer offense thats for sure. Kaepernick is going to have an even steeper learning curve but I think Harbaugh values his leadership traits, his athleticism, strong arm and accuracy. I'm sure he'll be able to learn the system as time goes on.
