I think he was cleared from the investigation. But he still isn't worth half of the contract.

Insane money...

But as for the 49ers now being in perpetual cap hell, I would only point out that there's always a way to massage the cap to sign the players a team needs, like the Saints (and Loomis) know very well.

Well do the 49ers have a Loomis? Sounds easy; but they're teams(Falcons) that have problems "massaging" the cap...

Falcons were in the Byrd sweepstakes, but couldn't make it work; even though they had more cap room than we did...

That's very true and I didn't mean to say that their gm would be on par with Loomis' ability to manage the salary cap. I was merely implying that the notion of "cap hell" is overused and oftentimes exaggerated i.e. FailClowns' message boards.

Can you imagine what Andrew Luck's contract will look like when he is due a new deal? Yikes!

look what happened to Flaco after his way too big pay day

Kaep will get soft, loose his edge
and the team around him will get weaker

hell, Brees hasn't been the same since his big deal

This isn't a bad deal at all imo.
Lots of get outs for the 49ers. If Kapernick doesn't perform he doesn't get the big bucs

Re: WOW - Kaepernick: 6yr, 126M, 61M guaranteed!!!

I am having a hard time ever remembering a contract this big, that was so heavily loaded with performance perks and incentives. I thought the league (and maybe the NFLPA, the new CBA?) had been sorta trending away from those sort of highly performance-laden deals. I guess not. I would love to see contracts where our wide receiver corps get paid per catch or docked a fine per every drop. Can you imagine how crazy good our young defense would play, if everybody had a payout for getting to the Super Bowl or Pro Bowl, and lost money over the course of their contract, if they didn't get there?
