Kyle Shanahan seems ready for draft season to end.
The 49ers head coach took a dark turn when discussing San Francisco's draft plans on Monday, noting he "can't guarantee that anybody in the world will be alive," following the conclusion of the 2021 NFL draft on Sunday.
Shanahan's strange comment didn't come completely unprompted. His answer came following a question regarding Jimmy Garoppolo's role as San Francisco's starting quarterback, which could come to a conclusion in the coming weeks. The 49ers have the No. 3 pick in the draft following a trade with the Dolphins, and San Francisco is expected to select either Alabama QB Mac Jones or North Dakota State's Trey Lance.
