Kyle Shanahan won’t select a quarterback with the No. 2 pick, according to the man at the center of one of the most controversial draft choices in NFL history.
Charley Casserly believes Shanahan, the 49ers’ rookie coach, will wait until later in the draft to grab a quarterback. (And, as the rumor mills have told us, he may have already added a long-term answer or stopgap via trade by then anyway.)
Why? Because of Shanahan’s role in the Houston Texans’ decision to pass on USC running back Reggie Bush with the No. 1 pick in 2006.
