Kaepernick has a weird deal that doesn't become fully guaranteed until April 1 of each year, after free agency period is basically complete, and teams know what they're looking for in the draft.

Question for people who understand this stuff better than me: If they trade Kaepernick before April 1, do the 49ers have any residual dead money on their cap? I think not, but the fact that NFL League Years starts on March 10, 2015 suggests that he's due the $2M roster bonus. Is that correct?

His stats have also declined for 3 straight years. I think the league has figured him out.
GM Trent Baalke issues a strong denial of the Kaepernick rumours.
But seriously, the guy is 25-14 as a starter, 4-2 in the play-offs (with both losses to the Super Bowl champs), thrown 50 TDs against 21 INTs (+10 rushing TDs), a career 90.6 RAT in the regular season and 87.3 RAT in the play-offs.
Some people don't like the way he looks, the way he throws, the way he talks, or the way he celebrates. But 2/3 of the league would love to have him as their QB.
