49ers Place Kapernick On Trade Block

This offseason has been great.  Stability is the key to success and it seems the majority of the NFL is in complete flux right now.  Every time I see a marginally good player sign for 50+ million I get a little happier, every rumor of turmoil brightens my day.

 

Seeing the posters on Falcon boards going crazy because they haven't even been linked to a good rumor was been delicious. They went more panic mode than our own trolls and now they've moved on to quiet acceptance that they are more cleaning house and rebuilding than challenging for the playoffs.

 

Their tears taste soooooo sweet.

@MaioccoCSN: GM Trent Baalke strongly denies the 49ers are shopping Colin Kaepernick.

GM says nah.

 

Of course, that is what a GM would say if fielding offers for his starting QB, so I will play the conspiracy card and say this means nothing, just for the sake of speculation.  The leak would come from other teams, not SF. 

 

The trade makes sense from the SF perspective.  Kaepernick has a good line and had decent WRs.  His coach is gone.

 

The problem with the rumor is John Fox.  I do not see him going for a Kaepernick.  Not his style of QB, assuming he has one.  Can you imagine transitioning from Peyton to Colin?  That is about 50 NFL IQ points.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
