But, I agree. The time to do this trade would have been before the draft so they could draft a replacement.

And the Bengals wouldn't trade a QB making $700k and sign a free agent like Kaepernick for $4 million. 

Don't be so sure. I don't think it would take 4 mil to sign kap. He needs to find a roster this year or risk sitting out an entire year. Makes getting on a roster next year more difficult.

Ponder has a 75.9 career QBR to McCarron's 97.1.  There's a large discrepancy, there.  RGIII has a toxic locker room rep and a long injury history.  Kaepernick nobody will touch because of all the bad pr that comes along with him.

The bengals have shown they could care less about public opinion. Pac man is still here. Mixon was drafted. If Mikey thinks he can get a good player cheap he does it.

With 12 picks last year it would have been hard justifying losing ajm for another pick. I doubt they'd take a 2nd for him next year. I suspect they slap at least a 2nd round tender on him.
