SI: The 49ers intended to trade Kaepernick to Philly

Report: Eagles backed out of trade for Colin Kaepernick intending to draft Russell Wilson

BY BRIAN KOTLOFF

The Eagles reportedly had a trade in place to acquire Colin Kaepernick for a second-round pick last offseason.

The NFL’s top two emerging young quarterbacks apparently slipped through the Philadelphia Eagles’ grasp last offseason.

Prior to the 2012 NFL Draft, the Eagles came close to trading a second-round pick for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, but backed out of the deal thinking they could draft Russell Wilson, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The 49ers were open to trading Kaepernick because Alex Smith, who they eventually traded to the Chiefs, had led them to the NFC Championship Game in 2011.

But the Eagles’ decision backfired when the Seattle Seahawks selected Wilson with the 12th pick in the third round, forcing Philadelphia to settle for current backup Nick Foles 13 picks later.

According to the report, the Eagles had “geared their whole draft around” Wilson, who led the Seahawks to the playoffs during a spectacular rookie season in 2012.

Wilson and Kaepernick face off on Sunday Night Football this week, guiding what many consider the two best teams in the NFC.

So, didn't want him at all was hyperbolic, but he wasn't the advocate of Wilson that the above makes it out to be, either.
Makes sense though. Carrol is a defensive guy. Plus with all of the qbs being snagged up the need for teams at that point. Would be funny if they hadn't gotten Wilson though. How different the fortunes of teams would be.

Oh, I think he was an advocate but Pete's a defensive guy first and foremost. There is another article out there stating that Schneider went against his "gut" and took Wagner in the second instead of Wilson, but in the end, the Seahawks ended up with three great players.

There's no doubt it was aces for them, but the media culture of today is far too quick to crown genius and lament absolute incompetence, completely ignoring the luck factor that so often plays a part in personnel decisions.

Had some more critical reporters actually looked at how often luck plays in, you wouldn't have personality cults built around incompetent dipshits like Scott Pioli.

I have no idea how even with the height, that Russell Wilson fell so far either way. Tannenhill was a converted wide receiver, Brandon Weeden is old as hell.

I have no idea how Wilson was ranked under them. ESPECIALLY BY CLEVELAND. With Holmgren who drafted SENECA WALLACE, AND COLT MCCOY.

I have no idea. It hurts, that entire draft hurts actually.

Which is the same as many regarded Russell Wilson. Don't believe the entitled phonies that make up an NFL front office. Tons of egos involved.
