why would he re-do his salary if its fully guaranteed ?

Sus if you really want to see a nightmare, go look at any of gabbert's recent tapes. Ouch. Prospect yes. Long term however, and not serviceable in the near future.
I've seen enough bad QB play to last me a lifetime.

Rather have him as #2. Don't even want a #3 on 53, our roster is too stacked and I'd keep someone else other than a #3. Put mcblt on practice squad if anything

It's really weird.
Seriously. Our backup QB has got to be the most volatile position in the entire league since Harbaugh got here. Guess you gotta plow through a bunch of em til you find the right guy though.
But we're plowing through the SAME guys. 
I think the 1st time around Harbaugh felt Johnson was better than a 3rd stringer and cut him so he'd have a chance to back up. He was clearly better than Tolzien in the preseason.

Hope we can afford all three, but cap room dictates a rookie as #3, and who ever is cheapest at #2
Balkie: "So JJ, what's your cap figure like...hmmmm, Blaine, any input?"
Well, looks like JJ has a leg up, unless Blains takes the minimum!

Just a camp arm.
Will loose out to Bethel-Thompson for the #3 spot on depth chart. Kory Faulkner will go to the practice squad. Once again leaving Josh on the street.

Excellent point. Harbaugh uses Johnson as a bargaining chip to get Gabbart to restructure his contract. Just like last off-season with McCoy.

I'll just say that I think if JJ can pick up the offense from where he left off in 2012- backup QB-wise we're in good shape. If in addition he can free up some cap space, then even better.

Yeah, he should. I liked Tolzien over JJ the last time, but he didn't do anything in his 2nd pre-season to show he's progressed. Very severe disappointment for me. I hope this time, he gives Blane Kory and McBLT some challenge. Personally, from what he showed last time, he's already a legit 3rd QB in my mind.
As before I think he has to win the #2 job or he is out.

He was a pretty good *camp arm* that last pre-season game in 2012 though. I've never really seen McBLT, Baine or Kory play so I really can't wait to see how they do in pre-season. How they played in other offenses don't matter to me as much to me as how they play in our offense. Look at Seattle and Green bay. Both play the WCO but each system is so different that it would be impossible to compare the two.
