49ers and Broncos trade talks heating up; Other teams in the mix
The Denver Broncos are in desperate need of a quarterback and they hold the last pick of the second round. According to Mike Silver, the 49ers want a second round pick in exchange for former Nevada quarterback Colin Kaepernick. I cannot believe that this will not get done. I think Kaepernick will be headed to the Broncos.
1) What I just reported on @nflnetwork re Broncos: Colin Kaepernick is their chief target. I believe they will go after him via trade…

2) The 49ers likely want a second-round pick; Broncos may be willing to part with a third. The dance continues.

3) I’m told Kaepernick is likely willing to restructure contract to Broncos’ liking… Though, to be fair, it is somewhat team-friendly…

4) I’m told 1 reason for Osweiler’s dissatisfaction in Denver was he felt he lacked options in Kubiak’s offense. Sought more freedom at line

5) Osweiler cut off conversations with teammates & others in Broncos organization last week. Clearly wanted out. Elway wasn’t wrong.
