MLS....come to STL!!!
Didnt see a specific thread for this guy, and I think he deserves one after last year's playoff run.......
Nice to see some kick back on Kaep, seems like everything else I have heard from people is that he will be a top 5 QB in fantasy this year (exaggerated, I know, but it seems like the fantasy world -- not just Foot, lol -- is in love right now). We just have such a relatively small sample size to base his fantasy worth on as of now. I love the cannon-arm and straight line speed, but IF frisco doesnt have such a dominant rushing attack, will Kaep be a top tier QB1 this year?
I'm not saying that SF has to ditch their offensive strategy and work one up that revolves around Kaep, but I'm not sold on his long term success in NFL if Hunter/James can't give them what Gore has the past decade or so. And let's be real, Gore could be good for another year or two, but the torch is getting passed sooner than later. Kaep was successful in the run-first Harbaugh scheme last year, especially against undisciplined DEF units (ex: playoffs vs GB -what a performance, but is it repeatable?)
If my drafts pan out to where Im waiting for a QB, I'd love to pair Kaep or Wilson up with a respectable veteran QB like a Romo/BigBen type, and hope that one of the young scramblers emerges as a dominant force. I just think someone will reach for those guys 1-2 rounds before I'd be willing to. I think this year he will be overvalued, hopefully to the point where he can become a bargain in 2014. Or he could come off the board as the 4-8th QB taken, and give you numbers to warrant the draft position, or better.
I really wanted to get some discussion started since I have him as a potential keeper, with a FA value from last year (FA value = slotted as a last round pick). Detail at link below.

Just seems counter-productive to keep a QB in a 10man league, especially with so many good WR/RB options for me in that one.
-quote from RamTough regarding 2013 outlookKaepernick should have atleast 1 or 2 big games but I feel that will be due to
his running ability.. IS he going to become turnover prone? we will see...
