Former 49ers general manager Trent Baalke lost his job on Sunday in large part for a number of questionable draft decisions over the years. After all, a roster made up largely of his picks won just two games in 2016.

His biggest faux pas may have occurred in the most recent draft, and could’ve possibly saved both his and Chip Kelly’s jobs. According to a report from Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Kelly and the coaching staff wanted to draft rookie phenom Dak Prescott, but Baalke elected to go in a different direction.

Good thing they didn't. That organization would have ruined him.

Casual reminder: the 49ers basically fired Jim Harbaugh to keep Baalke.

Dak wouldn't have saved SF or either of them their jobs.

Anytime a story like this comes out from an "insider" it's because a pissed off party (Chip Kelly) leaks something to him so he can tell the world and garner support for said party so he can repair or restore his reputation.
Chip wants to stay in the NFL and wants personnel control (which of course was an absolute disaster in Philly). He's using Garofollo to get out the word that he's not the reason the 49ers are shite.
