It has now been longer than a month since Colin Kaepernick had his tryout with the Las Vegas Raiders. If the Raiders (or any other team) were going to sign him, they would have. We can only assume that Warren Sapp must be right. He didn't do well in the workout.
Kaepernick is a running quarterback. He kills you with his feet. Has age taken that away from him? The tryout would not have revealed that. Kaep could still have great value to a team even if his passing accuracy isn't sharp.
Plus, just how bad did he do? Were his skills run-of-the-mill enough that he would do as a second- or third-stringer? And, add to that the fact that while he was keeping himself much in shape, he probably was not practicing daily. His skill level would only improve if you bring him to your practices and let him hone his skills on a daily basis.
It would be wonderful if a team were to bring him in and give him a full opportunity. If he doesn't work out in the training camp, cut him. Isn't that the way it is done with everyone else?
