Is he better than many collecting checks? absolutely! That being said if none of the owners want to deal with the headache then they have the right to not touch him with a 10 foot pole.

This is probably going to be a difficult suit for Colin to win. I absolutely think he is being blackballed.

But does he want to be a backup? What kind of contract is he looking for? If he wants to be a starter, he is the type of QB that can win you enough games to not pick in the top 10 and get a real franchise guy. You either want a franchise QB or someone with the potential to be a franchise QB that if they fail will land you a top 10 draft pick to get a franchise QB.

If he is ok being a backup and will accept a backup contract, he should have a job.

Meh.

Clearly the argument isn't whether he's better than a lot of the backups in the league and possibly a few starters as well. It's whether a team wants the PR bull that comes with signing him. If he was good enough, he'd be on a team somewhere because the pros would outweigh the cons.

Let's keep things in perspective - this ****ing turd lost his job to Blaine Gabbert. :spock:

**** him.

if the Packers offer a minimum contract for the remainder of 2017, the grievance would still continue, maybe gain strength if he plays well....

FYI: If Kaepernick can prove collusion, he stands to receive a sizable amount of money. His damages would be tripled: hypothetically, if Kaepernick proves that collusion cost him $10 million, he would be awarded $30 million in damages.

it could be pretty embarassing for Kaep when they make the judgment that it wasnt collusion by 32 teams and the NFL that kept him from getting a job, it was because he sucks

inget that he may not be a starter for a team. But who is going to say with a straight face that he is not better than some teams backup? He's worse than Clevelands backup? Really?

You want all the bullshit that comes with him just so he can be your backup? The media coverage? The fan outrage? Over a ****ing backup?

NO, you don't. That's why the loudmouth one who sucks the penis doesn't have a job. Well, that and he sucks.

He's a starter for a handful of teams.

Yea, that's pretty much the skinny of it.

Here's my thought on this...

The NFL really hasn't taken a stance on Kaepernick's lack of empolyment, have they?

What about guys like Darrell Revis? 32 and not signed, correct? He's likely better than a lot of guys on depth charts playing due to injury. There have to be a dozen other names like that... they won't all be apples to apples, but I'm not sure they have to be. RGIII and others are out there all have baggage and be honest, no team wants Kaep's baggage esp at this point.

How do you prove collusion when the NFL or any hack online can find a dozen similar caliber players that are also unemployed? I think part of the goal here is to screw the NFL... if they can prove this, then it blows up the current CBA, I believe.
