With Kaepernick at quarterback, the 49ers advanced to the Super Bowl where they lost 34-31 to the Baltimore Ravens.Smith, who turns 29 in May,[url=http://www.isabelmarantsneakersbootss.com/]isabel marant sneakers[/url], completed 70.2 percent of his passes last season for 1,737 yards and 13 touchdowns.
