Dec 28, 2014; Santa Clara, CA, USA; San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick (7) rushes for a gain during the third quarter against the Arizona Cardinals at Levi

3. Colin Kaepernick, San Francisco 49ers

When he burst onto the scene as a starter in 2012, Kaepernick looked unstoppable.  He can run, he can pass, and hurt you badly with both his arms and legs.  Throwing 31 touchdowns and just 11 interceptions and running for another nine touchdowns in 2012 and 2013, Kaepernick was one of the most talked about quarterbacks in the league.

In 2014 he dropped off a bit.  He still threw 19 touchdowns and 10 interceptions for a career-high 3,369 yards but the fact he couldn’t get as many victories and a few costly mistakes all of a sudden people saw him as human.  He only ran for one touchdown in 2014.  In the offseason he’s been working with former Cardinals and Rams quarterback Kurt Warner with his pocket presence.  Could we see a different Kaepernick than we are used to seeing in 2015?
