So who becomes the backup QB?

We traded for Alex Smith (unless somebody is dumb enough to offer SF a first rounder for him), and i hear that cassel will be cut and that quinn was looking at NY. Stanzi will never be a number 2, so who will be our backup QB? Will some of the better QBs in this draft class be available in the 3rd round? Will we trade up? or will we bring in a bum like Plako and Quinn from free agency?

Whose to say that the backup QB is not already on the roster? Who are we to say that Alex is the starter. Seems to me that it is to soon to determine who is what. Draft is not yet done, changes can happen, we might even draft a QB that wins the position. Who knows, I don't. Time will tell, as it always does.

Alex Smith will be our backup, Geno will be the starter.

I would love that scenario. Yes, we would be losing a lot of value, but in a draft year like this, you have to sacrifice some value for quantity of picks in order to get the other team to bite.
