It would be hilarious if the Redskins tried to sign him and he refused to play for them because of their team name. Because that sounds exactly like something he would do.

He wants the pats to get another 3 super bowls in a row with a QB that hasn't played as a starter in over 5 years... Knowing the content of all his other post this is actually a sincere honest post from him.

And if he doesn't, give him a history lesson on GPM.

If kaepernick got back into the league and a white defensive player tried to tackle him he will demand a flag and suspension for racist intent.

I was thinking it was either that (he was pretty beat up) or the $$$ he wants. And there really are not a ton of spots that make sense for him.

Focusing purely on personnel, the Redskins would likely be the best fit if he's looking to start or take over after a quick pull of the plug on the Haskins experiment.

 

 

But then you remember the Skins hired Riverboat Ron and I'm sure he was utterly thrilled to be away from Newton in the first place.

No he’s really this stupid.

He wasn't a good QB when he played. He had 2 "OK" seasons. On top of that now he hasn't played in 4+ years?  So if i was a GM I wouldn't sign him just on that. 

Yeah that layoff is pretty much impossible to overcome for a QB.  Especially a QB who never really fully developed the mental part of the game.  I am perfectly comfortable saying that if Kaepernick had not been blackballed, he'd still be out of the league by now.

that fact that most backups suck. like really bad. the hostetlers & foles are the major exceptions. its not a stretch to think this guy could be better than one of the 32 current #2 qbs.  

Backup you say?

Kaepernick is a starter.

He's definitely a good backup but no one wants the media circus that would follow for a backup role. Also he probably still only wants a starting job and again I don't think many teams would want the circus that follows

Cam Newton boggles me. Is he still hurt and we don't know about it?

I think it's a matter of him injuring more than one thing. His shoulder or arm was injured which is why his throws have been horrible. Then I heard he injured his leg or something

It's a shame because he could have been something. I think Panthers and the HC held him back.

Wasn't he offered a contract by a team after becoming a free agent and he turned it down?

I believe Seattle offered him a backup role. I think the Ravens had interest until his GF or fiancé wrote negative things about the Ravens owner.

It may have been Baltimore.  I was thinking it was Denver too, but I don't know what happened with that.

Can’t say I recall Denver being in the mix, but certainly possible.

When Denver wanted to trade for him when he was with the niners kap refused to take a pay cut.

Now that you mention that, I think I vaguely recall that.

Thanks.  I knew there was something with Denver that he refused.

Actually I'm a Medic from the Eastern shore. But what's wrong with chicken farmers? I'm sure they work 10 times harder than you.

Does he deserve a shot? Sure.  Does he deserve to start? Nope

He does deserve one, but no way he would even win a starting job. Aside from the time Harbaugh was in San Fran, Kap really wasn't that good of a quarterback. And now he's been out of the league for almost five years.

The Eagles should kick the tires. They’re going to need a legit backup for Hurts.

Should they though? Is Kaepernick a legit back up at this point? Having been out of the league 3 to 4 years.

Fair point. I mean I think it's worth some teams taking a look at him. I'm not sure we are one.

The Eagles are one of only a few teams who would be able to manage a Kaepernick return to the NFL....again, like Vick.

They're a little top-heavy at the QB position right now, though. Good time to shop Carson. Maybe free up some capital for Clowney.
