Was not getting signed actually the best case scenario for Kaepernick?
If he got signed, he would probably be a backup QB somewhere, receive some attention for awhile, then kind of be an afterthought. Since he hasn’t been signed, he’s become idolized, receives lots of money in other forms (ie book signings), and if he wins his court case he might become the highest paid player in the league, and not even have to worry about getting tackled. It seems like not being signed actually worked a lot in his favor

Actually, it depends on his work ethic during every offseason. If Colin Kaepernick works hard and performs very well in practice every day, he will greatly improve his chances of getting signed to play for an NFL team in the future.

No, but it was best for the fans and the league. Krappynig is a piece of sh!t.

On the other hand, he'll have gone a full season without getting in any football work and he'll have the quarterbacks of the 2018 draft class to contend with.
If you're an NFL general manager are you going to sign a troublemaker who has proven himself to be an average player or are you going to roll the dice on a youngster with unlimited potential?
Kaepernick isn't going to sign for the league minimum, or even the league average, so will cost less to go with the unproven player.
And, as you mentioned, Kaepernick is doing book signings and making public appearances so it's safe to assume that he is nowhere near playing shape. Someone may bring him in for a look next summer but it's highly doubtful he'll stick with a team because he just isn't very talented.
