I was by no means advocating that we sign Kaepernick, just a name that popped into my head when brainstorming QBs with Harbaugh connections that Jim might trust to be Herbert's back up...as for his age, he hasn't gotten hit for almost 8 years...I was just putting it out there that he might be someone that Jim turns to...
One of the areas I thought Telesco failed last offseason was four positions: back up QB; punter, blocking TE and back up Center. And that doesn't mean a guy like JK Scott wouldn't win the job but why not try to upgrade the roster with at least some competition. Easton Stick had ZERO competition for back up QB. ZERO!
It doesn't cost anything to bring Kaep in to see what he has left in the tank. Costs nothing. Granted, eight years out of the league - might not have much left. But I have seen Easton Stick - can do better.

So does this hire mean the end for our TCU quarterback?
Using a 7th rounder on Max Duggan. Max Duggan was a fine college QB for TCU --
But never understood that pick at all.
Duggan was signed to a futures contract but with Harbaugh and Hortiz - -that might not last long
There is a new GM in town -- time to churn this roster

The only cost of bringing in Kaepernik is what he does to the locker room. I have no idea where his head is now, but we don't need a 36 year old activist coming in right now to tell the players how awful the NFL is. If he wants to come in and show the team how to work hard and help in the QB room that is great. But we are trying to build a new culture that is team first and is all football and not to correct all the perceived ills of society. Harbaugh was not the coach when Kaepernik became famous for refusing to honor the flag, Chip Kelly was. Harbuagh loved the guy but I doubt he would have let him do what he did.
Personally, I watch sports as an escape to get away from all the troubles of the world and the troubles of my life -- not be reminded of them. I wish pro atheletes would play and not preach and be grateful for the adulation and obscene money they make. More than any of us will ever, ever see.

And just because Staley didn't develop/play him, doesn't mean he won't be good... or that JH can't develop him. Having said that, I think JH will want/need another LB to play along side of Henly. JH Squared knows LB's. We got this. 3rd round is the sweet spot."The author assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of this post.

@Back-up QB... I don't really care who it is. It could be Kaep; it could be Josh Johnson; it could be Duggan.
Whoever Harbaugh and the OC thinks fits. Backup QB is the least of our worries. How about we protect Justin so we don't have to use a backup...?OLineCentric

I do agree that making sure the Oline is better is a higher priority but from what I saw of Easton Stick, they can do better.
As for Kaep - I don't mind a tryout but again, I think they can do better.
