It looks like the 49ers will see a familiar name at QB - Alex Smith.
During the short window last week, Coach Harbaugh has Smith come in and he was seen leaving with a playbook. He has been working out with the other 49ers in the area, so the playbook will give him a head start on Colin Kaepernick (a name I will need to learn to spell), and David Carr will be fighting for a backup spot if he isn't released outright.
I'm sure the Niners are wanting time to tutor Kaepernick without the weight of the world on his shoulders; and if Smith suddenly flourishes under an offensive system then so much the better.
But I doubt the home fans will show A Smith much patience. A couple bad series and the boo birds will be out in full force.
