Former Pennsylvania governor: Eagles should trade for Kaepernick

Former Pennsylvania Governor and Philadelphia Mayor Ed Rendell has a potential solution to the team's current quarterback quandary: trade for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick.

In an interview with Talk Radio 1210 WPHT Thursday, Rendell suggested that it's time for the Eagles to move on from current starter Sam Bradford, and begin to look elsewhere.

"One thing is clear, Sam Bradford is not, in my judgement, the quarterback of the future for the Eagles," Rendell said. "What I would like to see us get at the end of the year, I’m told that San Francisco is going to be looking to trade [quarterback Colin] Kaepernick and I think in Chip Kelly’s system, Kaepernick could be the perfect quarterback because he can run."

While Sam Bradford has struggled through seven games, 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick hasn't exactly fared much better. Kaepernick has the lead the 49ers to a 2-5 record, and has a poor 82.8 passer rating on the season.

Oh, and who exactly has "told" Rendell the 49ers are looking to trade Kaepernick? Regardless, Rendell's suggestion is a fun one to ponder for fans of both teams.
