Rumored interest in Colin Kaepernick is great and all but Raiders should be going after Eric Reid  Empty Rumored interest in Colin Kaepernick is great and all but Raiders should be going after Eric Reid

Why would the Raiders or Patriots want this person. He will mess up everything for the team.

This week the attorney for Colin Kaepernick hinted the Raiders might be interested in the controversial quarterback. The NFL may be finding out his kneeling in protest may not so bad for business these days after he sent Nike sales through the roof with the ad campaign he did with them.

The potential interest for the Raiders would be as a backup to Derek Carr. Jon Gruden didn’t like EJ Manuel or Connor Cook to be the backup quarterback for the Oakland Raiders this year. So he cut both of them after the preseason and traded a 5th-round pick for AJ McCarron, who didn’t look any better in Buffalo than the two he just cut.

Yeah, the Raiders could use a capable backup who wouldn’t ruin their season if Derek Carr gets hurt. But there is another player banished for the Raiders need even more — former Pro Bowl safety Eric Reid.

The 26-year-old is Kaepernick’s former teammate with the San Francisco 49ers, who also protested and now isn’t garnering interest from NFL teams.

The Raiders have defended the pass reasonably well so far this year but it isn’t because of the play at safety.

Last year’s starting safeties have not played well this season. Former 1st-round pick Karl Josephhas barely seen the field while Reggie Nelson has proven he no longer has it.
