He was drafted after some scouts bought in to the "pistol", not shotgun, offensive game plan. Coach Jim Harbaugh built a complete offense around Krapernack to utilize the pistol offense. Krapernack was not able to read defenses and had not accuracy or touch on his passes. As an option running QB he was OK, until they came up with defenses that made him think about his options and most of the time it was wrong. His QB rating was so low that he was benched and became the second or third string QB. I don't know what was in his contract, but he became a free agent and he wasn't good enough to be signed. The NFL has welcomed back dog fighters, spousal abusers, murderers, dope dealers and users, if you had the TALENT TO PLAY THE GAME. Krapernack didn't.
