Veteran Backup QB Idea Kaepernick

Locked The Browns Board

  • Just throwing this out there... What if the Browns were to offer Kapernic a 3-4 year deal at veteran minimum with incentive bonuses. This incentives could include performance, community work, being a model teammate. This would essentially allow the QB we draft to sit as QB3 and in no way be thrust into starting due to injuries. Thoughts?

    No.

    The Browns don’t need a circus for what would amount to a third string QB.

  • Depends on what the Browns want in terms of a QB room on their roster.

    We will have  TT....plus they did sign Hogan to an extension,  plus they will draft a guy clearly...plus they still have  Kessler on the roster.

    The only way to have Kaep here is if they decide they want two veterans, plus their draft pick only.......and to get rid of both Kessler and Hogan.

    I doubt that that is their intent at this point. 

  • Would rather have Johnny , only for off the field entertainment . How about another swan adventure ?

    This.

    Get a real job Kap... stop posting on message boards.

  • He has turned down back up money before I wouldn't be surprised if he turned down practice squad money or clipboard holding money. What's Richie Incognito doing these days if we truly need a team cancer?

    I think he has been with the Bills the last few years...and playing well...and keeping his nose clean.    In checking...yes, he has been with the Bills now for 3 years....and started every game for them in that period.  And they made the playoffs last year for the first time since 1999.  So, he must not have been too "cancerous".

    So...I guess things can go good for a so called trouble maker.

    Fair enough. So here's a list of guys we could lure away or out of retirement... 🙄

    Brandon Marshall is under contract somewhere...Jets I believe...and had been playing well., but I believed he suffered injuries.   Pacman Jones, I believe, has been released by the Bengals...

    A few others:    Favre, Moss, T.O.   are in the HOF  (so...whatever they did didn't hurt their careers that much)

    WR Steve Smith has retired...and could be headed to the HOF. 

    Holmes  caught the TD to win the Super Bowl for the Squibs....

    And the others are long in the tooth and retired. 

    So...the only one that may apply to really is Jones.... who also may be retirement age.

    As far as Kaep being a locker room cancer....I think it is the exact opposite.  I think the people he played with would not have that opinion.   Maybe a few  Administrators, and people who are afraid of a little free expression may think that....but not his fellow locker room mates. 

  • Kaep? No... and it has nothing to do with any off-field stuff.

    Tyrod is our vet QB. We will draft our future QB who will backup Tyrod. Interjecting any QB between them only takes already limited practice reps from our future.

    We’re very cordial around here, newbie

  • No. The browns are working hard to change their image. Picking up Kaepernick would be the most circus move since manziel. It might have made sense last year when the team was being run by party clowns but now...no.

    Every team in the NFL has had an opportunity to pick Kaep up- and passed on him. Is he being blackballed? Possibly- but he has no place on the Browns. For all the reasons previously mentioned...  I'll add a couple- CK will be 31 this year, and Tie-Rod beats him in every statistical category, and is a couple years younger...  

  • If Kaep was a top 10 QB, he WOULD be employed by some NFL team.

    However, being a 2nd string caliber QB there’s not a team willing to tolerate him AND his baggage.

  • My only thought was he still has some talent and as a backup QB we hold the cards as to what to pay him if he wants to come back into the league. Rather have someone capable of starting than Kessler or Hogan and force our drafted QB to start. 

  • If he were Amish you could consider him shunned. Unlikely he ever steps on an NFL field again.

    This year for the Browns isn't "Super Bowl or bust."  Kaep isn't even listed, he's so far out of it.... Plenty of bums to choose from if we just want a warm body to lose games instead of CK..
