Kaep Contract If He Win Today

[beastson]

Word is if he does, the 49ers willing to kick out top 5 ALL-TIME money for a new contract

 

And we know Cam contract is next year

 

This is speculation at this point, but definitely something to watch out as QB that's not worth it seem to be breaking the bank these days. We all know Cam > Kaep, so I'll advise Rivera and Gettle to realize what they have and focus on maximizing the amount of talent around Cam on the offensive side of the ball cause Kaep is NOT getting it done alone

Where to even start with these QB contracts, especially when they've only ever played on teams brimming with talent.

see what happens when you win? you make more money. i heart capitalism.

If they pay Colin Kaepernick top five quarterback money, they'll come to regret it.

This is a very serious discussion that Gettleman needs to have with Cam and the team. I'm as big of a Cam fan as anyone, but I'm hard pressed to see ANY QB worth 25% of the team's cap.

I know franchise QBs don't grow on trees. But neither do complete teams. And giving up that much money kills the opportunity of building a team.

Super Bowl wins are like a quarterly report for a company. Short term trumps long unfortunately.

 

Many teams now have to be more savvy than ever as far as salary is considered.

 

However SF could take the contrarian approach and NOT pay Kap and let him go since they will have a SB AND a new stadium. Reboot and go from there.

The recent Jay Cutler extension by the Bears isn't going to help.

Weren't you one of those advocating trade talks and scenarios for Cam just three months ago?

The 2011 class are all due extensions, for all we know Gett may have already started negotiating with Cam's agent.

Will be very interesting to see the contacts Cam and Kaep command. Cam has been the better player but Colin has playoff success on his side.

I will say it again. Kaep, Cam, Dalton, Wilson, Luck should all make about the same as Stafford. If the Redskins can fix their defense and bounce back, throw in RGIII as well.

brady, manning, and brees are the only 3 QBs in the league worth burning 25+% of a team's cap on.

As I said then, if Gettleman didn't think that Cam was the answer, the he should trade him. This was after the Gettleman interview in, what, July of last year? August? And after Gettleman said that it was time to win.

Now, we've established that Gettleman thinks Cam is the answer (not my words, these are all based on Gettleman's pressers), we know that that isn't the issue anymore.

If you'd like to spin it to fit your narrative, feel free.

I really hope they do something that stupid.  I also hope we lock up Cam before that happens.  The mediocre guys that get big money, the more Cam will make.

I would throw Rodgers in there, but other than that I agree.

There is nothing to spin. It was pure lunacy then, and it's still pure lunacy now.

 

Cam is our franchise player. Build around him, and let's win.
