DeShone Kizer. 2. player. 42. No matter which quarterback the San Francisco 49ers pick here at No. 2 overall, it will be a reach. But new GMs, and and HCs almost always bring in a new QB to start the franchise over with. And DeShone Kizer has the highest floor and and ceiling of all the QB prospects. <p>He has the highest floor because he comes from Brian Kelly’s pro style offense at Notre Dame. He calls plays, changes protections and goes through more than just two simple progressions. Kizer also throws the ball down the field with anticipation into tight windows like NFL QBs.</p> <p>He has the most upside because he’s 6’5″, 235 pounds and has the best arm talent of the bunch. Kizer also athletic with the ability to run but my favorite thing about him is intangible. He can hang in the pocket and deliver an accurate ball knowing he’s about to get crushed.</p> <p>To me, that is one of the most important attributes to predict a college QB’s success in the NFL with. And Kyle Shanahan knows exactly what to do with the sum of all Kizer’s parts. The 49ers will start their rise up the NFC West standings with their new, GM, HC and QB in 2017.</p>. QB. Notre Dame
