Kaepernick wants $18MM per year

Then there’s the question of whether Kaepernick’s success comes more from his innate abilities or from the highly talented team that surrounds him. And whether any other coach can get out of Kaepernick the production that Harbaugh has — especially once the postseason rolls around and Kaepernick seems to find a higher level of play.

Hahahahaha.

On a serious note, this would truly fug us on Cam's contract negotiations, as this would surely be the first contract his agent will look to as a jumping off point for talks.

Discuss.

Trent Balke knows how to play this game better than Kaeps agent... He almost sent off Harbaugh because Harbaugh wanted too much on a new contract, who says Balke wont do the same to Kaep... I wouldn't be surprised to see San Fran bring in a quality backup quarterback to provide leverage in negotiations with Kaep.

Kap isn't worth it, he and Wilson have the best supporting casts in the entire league and usually manage games, no way they're deserving of elite money.

Russ is. He struggled a little during the playoffs but he's great.

Kaep on the other hand..... WOW. $18M per year for a QB with the arm of Derek Anderson and the decision making ability of Daunte Culpepper. Awesome. Where do we sign up?

He'll get it. That's just today's NFL. They traded away a #1 pick who was having his best season, so Kaepernick could be their future. If your committed to a guy at qb that's the price these days. You either pay it or move on to a guy who you believe is worth it, but chances are you're going to pay it to somebody at some point. Look at every contract qbs are signing these days. That's just the market for a franchise qb and they obviously believe Kaepernick is their guy.

Either Derek Anderson still has extremely high arm strength that I am not aware of, or you are uninformed. You can mock Kaep for many things, but arm strength is definitely not on that list.

Accuracy. Not strength.

    • You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
