49ers | Colin Kaepernick trade may still happen

San Francisco 49ers QB Colin Kaepernick could still be traded this week, according to general manager Trent Baalke.

Footballguys View: This is no surprise, as the draft acts as a “deadline” for teams to make deals because they won’t get their compensation until next year if they wait for this year’s draft to end before sealing a deal. Teams are also making decisions in the draft based on their current roster, so it is important to square that away during this NFL plate tectonic shift. Kaepernick has been rumored to be a Bronco as long as the 49ers get a quarterback in this draft.
