Free Agent quarterback David Carr, the former No. 1 overall pick and a Bakersfield, California native, will fly to San Francisco to meet with the 49ers this weekend, according to someone informed of his travel plans. The person requested anonymity because neither Carr's camp nor the 49ers want the visit public. If he winds up with San Fran, Carr would be in direct competition with another top overall pick who's also had a disappointing start to his career: Alex Smith, who recently received a vote of confidence from head coach Mike Singletary Source: Newark-Star Ledger
Carr, a former #1 pick (2002) can go from backing up another #1 pick (Eli Manning - 2004) to potentially backing up yet another former #1 pick (Alex Smith - 2005). Very interesting.
