Compare Kaep's last 6 games with SF to Garoppolo's. Also, compare Kaep with some of the QBs currently on a roster. A lot of trash out there. The whole he sucks or can't play argument was always bogus and went out the window a looonng time ago fella. He is good enough to start on some teams and good enough to backup pretty much anywhere.
But the bottom line is other teams likely knew Clark just wanted him gone and because of that we had absolutely no leverage. The Chiefs are a business, and demographics are important to a business. The Chiefs man demo is Midwestern, white, conservative, Christian, God and family type people. They already felt a slap in the face when their identifiable "face of the franchise" was traded away. So now some people say "They trade Smith but keep a punk like Peters on the team WTF!?!??!" I think this absolutely had something to do with the Peters move, coupled with Clark's personal feelings toward the man.
