A) I don’t think Kaepernick is relegated to looking for a QB3 job, only. B) I think he fits as a backup on a playoff contending team that has a bad backup situation OR a team that will be actively QB hunting in 2020. C) QB3s are not relegated by age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I’m sure David Fales, Sean Mannion, Cooper Rush, Garrett Gilbert, and the like, would be much better options... 11 minutes ago, GSUeagles14 said: C) 30 out of 32 teams seem to disagree.

Joe_is_the_best Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 The amount of mental gymnastics it takes to view Kaepernick as the victim here is staggering. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramxel Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Man, the NFL screwed him 3 years ago. Now he's just screwing himself. If he REALLY wants to play he knows he has to make some concessions, and doesn't seem like he's ready to do that. He's just living in his dream world looking for his ideal situation...

The NFL wouldn't allow media into the workout and the fear was that the NFL was going to edit his workout into only the bad throws to make it look worse. So, they moved it to a public location where everyone was welcome to watch and film it. Remember, as others have said, the NFL sent out a VERY late notice that this workout was being held on a Saturday instead of the usual Wednesday. Teams send their scouts to colleges on Saturday's and their NFL guys are preparing for the next day's game on Saturday. It was a total sham to begin with. Kind of hard to argue against Kaepernick when he wants as many people to see his raw workout as possible. How could you possibly argue that him wanting as many people to see the workout as possible means he doesn't want to play? I do think it's strange that no teams are even going the formal route to have a Wednesday workout with him, though. Either way, I'm not sure what the aftermath of this will be. His workout was him proving he didn't get any worse than he was before, but he doesn't look any better, either. He has to trust the NFL if he ACTUALLY wants to play in the NFL. Can't make it any more simple than this. If he doesn't trust them with such a simple thing, why the heck should we (or the 32 teams) believe that he REALLY wants to play in the NFL?

AFlaccoSeagulls Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 As someone who just watched Jared Goff, Mitchell Trubiski and Chase Daniel try to complete NFL passes for 60 minutes you cannot honestly tell me Kaepernick shouldn't be on an NFL roster, let alone starting for at least 5-6 teams in the NFL at this point. That was just brutal to watch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zycho32 Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Let's be honest here. If you could somehow ride the coattails of the Injustice Community and parlay it into both a sweet deal with Nike as a "Rebel" AND get a settlement from the NFL, and on top of all that do so without risking your body on the gridiron? And all you have to do to maintain that gravy train is to periodically proclaim your desire to play football again and perhaps run the risk of getting picked up after a workout? You'd take it. You'd be a fool and a moron not to. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
