Glad Reid has Kaps back, would hate to pick him up. He is a one read and run quarterback and less accurate than Cam and he hasn't played in over 2 years. Then the gall to ask 20 million which is starter money for someone who hasn't started in years and wasn't good when he did once Harbaugh stopped schemed around his multiple limitations. I can definitely see why no one wants him even without the protest issues. Reid is a different story altogether.

Just for clarification he only asked the AAF for 20 million, correct? Mainly bc it take that much for him to play in that league. I’m sure he would take a 5-7 mil contract on a prove it deal.

Unpopular opinion. Voth is quickly overtaking Gantt as the most smug prick in the journalism Pantherverse. I would love to punch both in the face. 

He told the truth. Kapernick was never that good. Reid is dumb because Kap did get beat out by Gabbert. Kap will never play again. He got paid like he wanted because he couldn't make the money being an NFL QB.

Wasnt it already confirmed that Kaep never asked AAF for $20M?

That price? At least $20 million, according to the Associated Press’s Barry Wilner, who said he got that information from a person with “knowledge of the conversation” between Kaepernick and the fledgling league.

BUT, the AAF standard contract is 3 years.

      XL about to turn the corner

      We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.

      This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.

      Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
