And as I recall, you saw Kaep a few times in college, came away unimpressed and were disappointed We drafted him. You're gonna give him every chance to prove you right.
Originally posted by Kolohe:Unimpressed, yes, because he relied heavily on what he did as an individual and not what he did with his team. Vince Young had a much successful career, yet, hes now a career back up in this league.

Originally posted by prometheus:Why would we keep Johnson who is older than Kaep? Especially since Kaep is doing better than he is and has more upside. Also, Kaep is not polished yet, he hasn't shown anything in a regular season game. Why would anyone give up a first? Plus no one is going to give up a draft pick, much less one as high as a 1rst or Second at this stage of the season. You only do so when you are a player away and that player has proven himself and is disgruntled, if the player is disgruntled, you can had him for less. Even if he has a great pre, bringing him in now, is a waste since he had no training camp in your own system.
If Josh Johnson is showing good competition to Tolzien, I think it might be a good idea to trade Kaepernick. Not due to any lack on Kaepernick's part but due to the fact, he would be a fairly polished qb and some teams badly need a quality qb. We could possibly get a first rounder or a swap of first rounders plus a second and solve the problem of 4 qbs.I think if Josh Johnson is viable then Tolzien and Johnson should be enough. Kaepernick also would be able to start wheras in SF, he would be a backup for at least 4 years and face stiff competition from Tolzien.

And a borderline nut-job, why on earth would you compare him to Kaep?

Originally posted by Memphis9er:Because they have similar playing styles only VY was much more successful in the college game. Granted Young is a headcase, but they are cut from the same athletic mold.

VY "much more successful"? VYs junior year is the only one he had a higher passer rating than CK.
Regardless, that talent and playing style is a big reason why VY has helped an NFL team win some games and has two pro bowls under his belt. Imagine what VY would've done with Alex Smiths character and work ethic.... Now you're imagining Colin Kaepernick.

CK is clearly not ready nor the ndl stage he still has the tendency to be a run first qb although he is fast he is not agile or overly powerfule like vick or cam or even VY the other rushing QBs. He is great when we call a rollout however hos pocket passing is a lot to be desired. He really needs to improve it a lot if he wants to be the starter
