Season predictions: Who will be the team’s biggest surprise player?

It’s that time of the year where we make our predictions—looking back on when we did this last year and yikes. I predicted Dee Ford would be the team MVP, and Dante Pettis would be the offensive player of the year. The good news is this year can’t be any worse! This year I’ll predict the record, MVP, offensive and defensive players of the year, the biggest surprise, the rookie of the year, and a breakout player.

Record: 11-5

I’ve said all offseason that the 49ers would finish 12-4, but I’m changing my tune last minute and going with 11-5.
