This is a guy to keep your eye on, he'll will likely opt out of his contract at the end of the season becoming a FA. I think Kaepnernick is a guy worth taking a shot on because of his upside, his tools (quick release, arm strength, athleticism) are arguably some of the best the NFL has ever seen at the QB position, he's had success in this league and if he puts it together mentally, has Steve Young like upside. If the Jaguars are going to bring in legitimate competition at the QB position next season, I'd rather take a chance on a young guy with upside (like Mike Glennon, Kaep etc...) instead of known commodities like Brian Hoyer etc..., I've watched him play in every game he's started this season, and outside of the Bears game has looked pretty good, all while throwing to guys like David Patton, Jeremy Kerley, and Vance McDonald.

 

I think Kaepernick is much better than Bortles and (along with a strong run game) would make our offense incredibly dynamic, the fact of the matter is the Jaguars aren't taking a QB high the draft next season, and I highly doubt they'll have interest in the Brian Hoyers/Josh McCowns of the world. Jimmy Grappolo's asking price will be too much in a trade, the best course of action is to first, solidify the offensive line, sign a dynamic talent like Kaepernick, and let him and Bortles battle it out.
