Pretty sure I'm on a island, but much rather have injury plague RG3. Was a fan of his when he was in college and stilll think with the right coaching could be fine, if he could stay healthy. Never the less rather see the Seahawks develop a cheap rookie backup.
I'm not convinced they aren't sticking with Boykin. He's still on the team as far as I know.
I'm for that, but really hope he stays out of trouble. Was impressed with his play at times last year, specially considering him being a undrafted rookie and all.
Kaep days of making things happen with his legs are kaput, see last season tape for verification. He's now a skinny vegatarian, he not going to be making awesome runs with his legs and he never had it as a passer. The whole idea of Kaep being a Seahawks player makes me want to barf.

Oh Hellllzzzzzzzz NO!
Man these are trying times for me.Rumor has it Pete just made Kaep our starter for next year, now we have a great back-up in Russ!!

Stick to the plan. They made Boykin the backup because he plays like RW lite. They have spent a full season developing him, don't derail the plan for someone cast away. Stick to the plan.
It's a lot more than "athleticism" that makes RW who he is on the field though. It's decision making, elusiveness (Kaep has speed but isn't all that elusive), accuracy, poise, leadership, and on and on. Kaepernick has proven not to be a very good pocket passer. He has a long delivery, doesn't make great decisions nor throw for accuracy, etc. He could be a decent backup here, but he doesn't really remind me much of RW at all.There is only 2 QB's in the league that remind me like #3 in the aspect of athleticism. Kaep is one of them. I want to win and I think he brings that more than RGIII or Boykin . Count me in for Kaep.
Fair enough. Like I said at the end, Kaepernick just may be a decent backup here. I am not all that excited, admittedly, about the team thrusting the decision at me to either "forgive and forget" or not support the backup at the most important position on the field. If he does come here, I just pray that he doesn't bring the sideshow with him and signs for cheap.
