Do the 49ers have a particular quarterback in mind? It remains unclear, but this photo from a workout at the QB Collective seems to indicate that Ohio State's Justin Fields was in a workout with none other than 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan.
The only pro-style quarterback development pipeline led by the coaches who (just might) draft you.

The QB Collective is a "pro-style development pipeline" for high school athletes looking to refine their skills at quarterback. The staff features a number of current and former NFL coaches, including Shanahan, his father Mike, 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, and division rival head coach of the Los Angeles Rams Sean McVay.
Fields is the
player featured on the home page when you go to the company's website, and he clearly has continued his work with the experienced staff as he prepares for the draft.
Fields appears to be much younger in the photo, so this workout likely came when he was in high school or earlier in his college career.
