Irv Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Can't find a link to it outside of Bleacher Report but I saw that Kap's lawyer tweeted that he expects the QB to be signed within 10 days. What do we all think about this? Great news! Edmonton is a great sports town! Edited October 31, 2017 by Badthingsman
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted October 31, 2017 Posted October 31, 2017 Cleveland.. They missed out on McCarron today, things can't get any worse, give it a shot! ...never understood why OBD didn;t take a flier on the kid in the 4th on draft day....nothing flashy but at least a cerebral game manager.....then again, OBD has been the mecca of QB picks and development post Kelly (COUGH).........

BarleyNY Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 the owners aren't working together on this. It was a joke. Not my best, but pretty good, I thought.
Saxum Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Who knew Bills fans hated free speech so much. Who knew the Dork knew sooooo little about constitution? Amendment I.

stinky finger Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 that's where i'm at. i just don't care. Yep. Who gives a @#$%? Who knew Bills fans hated free speech so much. This. Kaep is simply misunderstood.
Luka Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 We'll know Kap got on his knees for a different reason if he gets signed.
frostbitmic Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 This should be fun. After this afternoon's trade debacle he almost has to end up a Brown. He even gets to start. Everybody wins. Everybody except Browns fans.
Adam727 Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 As much as I hate to see the Pats get even marginally better, it'd be pretty great if he signed with NE.
reddogblitz Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 As much as I hate to see the Pats get even marginally better, it'd be pretty great if he signed with NE. Be careful what you ask for.
boyst Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Be careful what you ask for.he would get killed in NE*. Their OL blows. He isn't smart enough to make the complicated reads that the offense relies on either heir quick play. He would put up good running numbers and get knocked out quick. You don't need a QB as a backup who would be potentially knocked out for being such a bad QB. So, yes, I wish upon the sky fairy Jesus that he would sign with the Patriots. I'd even write a $20 check to Kraft to show my appreciation.
Norcalbillsfan Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 In high school I got fired for distracting my co workers and having a bad attitude. I should have blamed everyone else and sued to get my job back.
DC Tom Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Given the bang-up job his agent's done so far, I wouldn't be holding my breath. Kaepernick started in a SB a few years ago and Hotrod's team is 5-2.There are no style points in football.Just win baby.Carry on. Then he went 8-8. Then he went 2-6 and got benched for Blaine frickin' Gabbert. Then season Gabbert shat the bed, and Kaep came in and proceeded to go 1-12. Just win baby.

The win included a come from behind in the 4th quarter. Just because you don't like his politics and protest doesn't mean we need to re write history. The man can play and will if he gets another chance IMHO. Hopefully it's not the Patsies**. Bill Bellyache figured out how to win with Mat Cassell. I suspect he could with Colin as well.

I suspect he could with Colin as well. that was what, three years ago? I reckon it works kind of like to Rex Ryan defense, right? He was exposed That season and eventually discovered by the rest of the league next year. There's nothing he'll be able to do on the field in 2017 that would directly make him a true winner. He could add to a team by making a few highlight-reel plays because that's what his type of player does but the net outcome overall is it a negative Edit: I was purely talking about football, he has nothing to add to a team in 2017 football wise that would make a team any better. Sure he could start on the Browns tomorrow would maybe be their best quarterback but he's not going to provide them any better an opportunity to win because that's not what the Browns need. There's maybe two teams in the League that calf Kaepernick could start on by the end of the season being their best quarterback. And that is Miami and Cleveland. Cleveland would never take him, he wouldn't be very good for that town on PR alone. But he also wouldn't work in that system of offense. Miami loves controversy, loves being in the news, and I think gase has had it up to his ears and willing to try anything at this point. I could see my me being a team heu signs with. And as a backup, there's no way in hell you want that !@#$. The second there's trouble there's going to be an amazing controversy- is he not starting because he's black? Is he not starting because of his protest? He gets to be a victim all over again. And maybe he fills in for an injured white quarterback and then he's pulled after playing fairly well. Could you imagine him going to Green Bay and winning getting them to the playoffs and then being bench next year in February and Rodgers and what people would say? You can laugh but people would say it Edited November 1, 2017 by Boyst62

You can laugh but people would say it Come on man. In 11 starts last year he threw 16 TDs and 4 picks for 2241 yards and ran for another 468 with a 90.7 rating. And that was on a tire fire team that fired it's coach after the season. But yeah, he sucks.
dgrochester55 Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) Kaepernick's best chances are in Denver or Green Bay. Both of those team are in the playoffs this year if the QB play is even average. Right now, the current QB level for both teams is nowhere near that. One could argue that a QB with superbowl experience and some success in the past can't be worse than what Hundley and Siemian are doing now. This would assume that he has stayed focused enough to stay in football shape and quickly learn a system this year. Edited November 1, 2017 by dgrochester55
Augie Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 If someone signing him makes everybody shut up, I’m all for it!
