I always thought he would go back for his Senior year, actually I thought either Landry Jones or Matt Barkley would back out or wouldn't declare for the draft. But I think its kind of a smart move since this draft could be filled with Robert Griffin, Ryan Tannehill, Landry Jones, Nick Foles, Ryan Lindley, Kirk Cousins, Brandon Weeden, Austin Davis and hopefully even Tyler Wilson. I would say this QB class is far better than last years. Should've waited one-more-year to take a QB.
Yeah, this is a nice crop of QBs. I know we drafted Kap, but I wouldn't be surprised if we drafted another QB in the middle rounds. Its looking pretty certain that Alex will get an extension; however, if we pass on bringing back, all bets are off. I'm sure Harbaugh likes Kap, but I feel Dalton was really the guy he wanted. Kap was the consolation prize. I think Harbaugh would force Baalke's hand to draft another QB if a top prospect falls to us.
I hope we can get a look at Kap and maybe even Tolzien (unlikely) in the remaining couple games. I like how he stands tall in the pocket. Plus, you have to love his arm strength. The ball gets there in a hurry.
