49ers will not pay Kap 20 million a year. They realize he isn't anything special just like they realized Alex Smith wasn't. All they need is an average QB who can run every now and then.

One thing to take into consideration is how much the salary cap shot up this year and some people expect it to make a similar jump next year.

All of a sudden, 20 million per year (especially if creatively structured) is not too much of a cap albatross.

Trade him to Houston/Rams, draft JFF.
It will be like things never changed.

I'd release Kaepernick, re-sign all of that amazing talent they have, and draft a "game manager" type QB who won't throw the ball into double coverage with less than a minute to go in the NFC Championship Game.

If I'm SF I'd let his arse walk. He'd be worse than Aaron Brooks if he'd get that money.

It's mind-boggling to me that anyone would even consider giving Kaepernick $15 million, much less 20. He's not a great quarterback by any means, especially as teams get better at defending the run.

Does he think that Top 5 =
31st in Comp %
20th in Yards (32nd in y/game)
8th in Y/att
17th in TDs
11th most sacks

..or is he hoping to play better?


ETA: Stats from ESPN


ETA2: If you add his rushing yards to his passing totals, he moves to 17 or so.

Kaep is such a douche. I hope he goes to Oakland so his career can come to a halt.
