Kaepernick on the trading block

[WagonCircler]

Back in January, 49ers CEO Jed York said quarterback Colin Kaepernick was an unbelievable player that the team needed to put in a better position to make plays. It looks like that position might be elsewhere.

Per Jayson Braddock at KBME SportsTalk 790 in Houston, the 49ers are trying to trade Kaepernick, and the Eagles and Bears are reportedly already interested. The Eagles are expected to sign running back Frank Gore, and Kaepernick could join him in Philadelphia.

Even if he the Bills aren't in the market, if Kaepernick goes to Philly, it frees up Foles (given that the Eagles extended Sanchez today).

I have a feeling that the Bills starting QB is not on their roster yet, and that Cassell will be his backup, and EJ will be out.

Interesting.

49'ers willing to take a nearly 10 Mil cap hit to get rid of him ? Why ?

[BertSquirtgum]

Because he stinks.

[Don't Panic]

His ceiling is apparent asa thrower, but he is a pretty dynamic athlete, maybe one of the most unique at his position in the league. There's value there, especially in an era where QBs worth a damn are at quite a premium. He can be successful in the right system. Roman and Kelly are two guys who could make him work.

[GingerP]

Who are they going to make their QB? They don't even currently have another QB under contract. That makes no sense, unless they get a guy like Foles or Cutler back in the trade.

[Night Train]

He's had some off-field issues before. Could more be coming out ? Pure speculation.

Rumor is any deal involving Kap will involve a QB swap. Two teams rumored are Philly and Chicago with each team sending their QB back for Kap.

[Historian]

I'd give them EJ for him.

Just sayin...

Niners GM Baalke shoots down Kaepernick trade rumor

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000477319/article/niners-gm-baalke-shoots-down-kaepernick-trade-rumor

Front office executives don't often waste their time shooting down reports, but late Sunday night, Trent Baalke couldn't help himself.

The 49ers general manager issued a strongly worded statement denouncing a rumor being circulated by KBME-AM, which said that the team was interested in dealing quarterback Colin Kaepernick.........

[GreedoII]

Have to find a way to get this guy. He's proven his sucess and could use a diff scene too. find a way and this team is real legit.

[yordad]

Maybe Cassel will get traded twice in one week. LOL

[yordad]

"Colin is our quarterback and we are excited to have him," Baalke said. "He is not going anywhere. The media reports suggesting otherwise are without merit and, quite frankly, ridiculous."

Reported 12 minutes ago.

[Mr. Miyagi]

It's another baseless, speculative, random dart on the wall. It wouldn't surprise me if "someone we know on this board" started that rumor, you know, as in "I hate to say it but..."
