NFL News OT: Kaepernick met with Elway

[crownontherocks]

Should Denver and Colin Kaepernick agree to a restructured contract, Broncos then expected to trade mid-round pick to SF to complete deal.

Mid round better be a third or third and 5th
Dont help the Donkeys out Niners should as for A player like Sanders or Latimer

 

[Froob]

He's a good fit for a Kubiak offense, I like this move for them a lot. Although, I'd def rather have Fitz if he's going to lower his price.

Denver with Kaepernick doesn't really change them a ton - you just really need to respect the run, whether it's a rushing play or a Kaepernick designed run or scramble. He can't really throw for ****, though. He's got a big arm but no touch at all. Just defend the deep ball and the run and you're probably okay.

I am curious how Kubiak's offense will change this year, however, now that the chop block's been outlawed.

Cut blocking is still legal, so not much will change, probably.

I mean, the guy did light the Patriots up a few years ago.

2012 D was not exactly stout or great vs the pass or run.

 

[Marqui]

2012 D was not exactly stout or great vs the pass or run.

That's my point, he's good enough to beat non-great teams like Denver's QBs last year.

 

[long distance]

Best solution for both in given circumstances. Extended plays are their best weapon. If he gets his rookie confidence back (carried by still very reliable defence), might be a good fit.

 

[Froob]

What is going to happen with Fitzpatrick? Who would sign him now if the Jest are outta money and the Donkeys get Kaep?

 

[Todd Bradley]

Because he is a terrible QB?

He took a team to two straight NFC Championship games and a Super Bowl and were a goal line stand away from winning it.

He had two down years in seasons where there was coaching turmoil.

Kapernick may not be the force he once was, but he's far from terrible.

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

Yeah, and Broncos would have to re-do his contract as they would be over their cap.

Didn't it become guaranteed April 1???

 

[Marqui]

Didn't it become guaranteed April 1???

It can still be restructured.

Plus ridley had a terrible fumble that game that almost put the game out of reach.

 

[Flash]

Even with a restructure how the **** do they keep finding cap space to do this??

I think that was in the 1st quarter

Regardless, that game was one of my "favorite losses"

Cap is crap.

[fnordcircle]

Cap is crap.

One day Elway was just like "I don't care, I can't stand it" about the cap.

Denver with Kap is the 49ers with Harbaugh and that D. Don't ask him to do any more than he's capable of, rely on your D and the run game and the Broncos will be just fine.
