I'll cheer for the Broncos if Kap is our starter next year.

Better yet, if denver doesn't trade their second pick for kap, I instantly become a fan of the player drafted in that slot.

He will be in the playoffs again if he goes to the Broncos, that's for sure. The last time he had stability all around him he posted back to back seasons of 90+ QB Rating while leading his team to the SB in one year and helping get to NFCCG the next. He has also already out dueled Brady in his only match up. Would like to see how that 2nd match up goes though, especially if they met in the playoffs in Foxborough

We're just waiting it out. We have until November to trade Kaepernick which WILL happen eventually. Teams suffer injuries to QB's every year and there are only 5 realistic prospects that could start this year in the draft. 6-7 teams need QB's and the QB's released will be the same guys these teams looking for help didn't rate higher than the current free agents available.
Also don't forget that we can easily handle Kaep's contract because we have so much cap space of course, but more importantly we can look at it as if we are only keeping Kaepernick for half of his contract. (Week 8/Before Nov)
This means we are only on the hook for roughly $7mil for an insurance plan to our draft pick, and/or a quality back up for half of the season. At which point we still receive no less than what we are currently being offered. The risk is worth it though because we have so much to gain if teams suffer injuries or draft picks don't work out from the mid 1st round and back. The QB free agent talent pool will get no better upon releases and with only 5 QB's that could potentially start in the draft our odds are very good 2 or more teams will desperately need a QB by week 8 or much, MUCH sooner.

Well if they think that much of him they should have no problem paying him the money he is asking. Plus if they wanted him that bad he would be gone already.
And if Gabbert was so great they would have inquired about him instead of Kaep. I can do this all day.
What make no sense?
If Gabbert was really that good, a team would have tried to trade for him, not Kap.
in that sense well then since brady is better then both, why doesnt Denver inquire about Brady?
why did the Texans deal for Mallett and not Brady? if Brady is so much better than Mallett why didnt the Texans inquire about brady
oh that's right, because teams generally arent interested in trading the best QB they have on the roster
they'll likely only listen to offers for the #2's if the offer is right...

Everytime that someone point weaknesses in your arguments you scream BIAS.
C'mon man you disappoint me you can do better rebuttal than that

Lets be honest with the constant struggle from half of NFL teams to find good QB play there was only one serious proposal for Kaps trade from the most desperate team in NFL----> Browns
Even Fitz had 2 serious proposals: Jets and Broncos
Kaepernick has not even close the value that some people give him

I hope kap must understand about it. Kap said called teams were bluff to interested to trade for him. They asked him for paycut that is really hurt to him.
I want to forgiving for kap if kap can chance time to best his team. Baalke need talking with whole team must forgiving to kap who was lost lock room and mess up in the past. And must forgiving to everyone our whole team and kap too. We need forward move on and keep focus our training best to playw games and get a wins games. Go Kap and Go 49ers.. whos with me?!?! bro?

Not at all. Your "throw s**t at the wall and see if it sticks" approach is something I love to call out time and time again...just like this post:

Please name the teams that are in need of a #1 QB and are actively looking for one. Go ahead.

How are the Broncos more serious about Fitz than they are about Kap? Did they offer him a contract?
