They took a run at Kaepernick before Siemian even participated in the offseason programs prior to that year. The previous season, he clearly did "wow" the team, because Kubiak addressed the surprise of keeping him behind Manning and Osweiler, being that he just made plays every time they gave him a shot, and referred to his arm strength.
There was no chance that a team was going to bet their season on a kid that "wowed" them in preseason and did a good job running the scout team, but otherwise had no game action all year.
