Quarterback (2): Jimmy Garoppolo, C.J. Beathard

This position is probably the easiest for the coaches to decide on.

Jimmy Garoppolo is this team’s franchise quarterback. Enough said.

C.J. Beathard is a second-year rookie with a lot of potential. He plays slowly and sluggishly on the field, but his trait of toughness that the coaches have been in love with for a long time will keep him on the roster.

Unfortunately, that means who I dub the greatest practice squad quarterback of all time, Nick Mullens, will not make the team.
