2. San Francisco 49ers

42. Chip Kelly insists that he’s not going anywhere despite the struggles of the San Francisco 49ers in 2016. The bottom line is that roster needs a lot of work. If he’s going to get his offense running the way he wants to, he’ll have to assemble the proper players. It starts at the quarterback position. Kelly has never selected his own 1st round QB in his entire tenure as a head coach. Blaine Gabbert was a failure and Colin Kaepernick hasn’t been much better. <p>Deshone Kizer may not be putting up the wins or the numbers experts had hoped for, but a lot of that isn’t his fault. Notre Dame has failed to surround him with proper weapons and the defense is a train wreck. He’s still a highly gifted young man with a strong right arm, big body and plenty of mobility. He’s also smart by all indications. Probably the most talented quarterback in this class. It will fall on Kelly to help him realize his vast potential.</p>. QB. Notre Dame. Deshone Kizer . 2. player
