2. San Francisco 49ers

Key Free Agency Additions: WR Pierre Garcon, WR Marquise Goodwin, QB Brian Hoyer, LB Malcolm Smith, FB Kyle Jusczyk
Key Free Agency Losses: WR Torrey Smith, S Antoine Bethea
Their Pick: Notre Dame QB Deshone Kizer

If the beginning of free agency told us anything, it’s that most likely the draft is going to play out nothing like we’re predicting currently. The reason for that is because we’re already seeing how teams that need a quarterback are making move this offseason. The Niners, the Bears, the Browns, the Texans and Broncos have all been scrambling to try to pick up their quarterback in free agency, not wanting to wait for the draft. To me, that speaks to how the league views this quarterback draft class, whether we agree with them or not. If a team can afford to not use their first round pick on one of these quarterbacks, they’re going to do what they need to to make that happen.

I have Deshone Kizer as the pick here because, if the 49ers are not able to trade for Washington’s Kirk Cousins, they can’t roll into the 2017 season with just Brian Hoyer and no future quarterback in sight. They’ll take the one with the highest ceiling for new head coach Kyle Shanahan to mold. That would be Kizer.
