johnnyjet Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 If healthy he's better than anything we've had in quite some time. Obviously he's light years better than geno. If we could get him and a bunch ....and I do mean a bunch of draft picks from filthyadelphia I'd take the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny16 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 If we trade out of the #6 spot for Bradford, then I'd have to question Maccagnan's ability as a GM because that would be about the dumbest thing we've done since trading our #1 for Doug Jolley a while back.

The only way that would work is if Philly gives us a ton of picks along with bradford. I would want next years first and 2 2nds at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyjet Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think it could work, but philly def needs to overpay the jets in picks. Jets get Bradford and then draft Petty. We go into the year with Bradford, petty and Simms holding the clipboard. Trade geno for a bag of deflated balls. A kicking tee and a hot dog. Boom, contenders.

Vinny16 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 They'd have to give us a Washington-type deal (multiple #1s) to even consider it. If Chip Kelly is that desperate for Mariota, then he needs to pay a huge sum to get him, regardless of the fact that he'd only be moving up to #6 in a trade with the Jets rather than up to #2 like Washington did a few years ago.

slats Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Even without all the injury concerns, I've always thought Bradford was ridiculously overrated. I honestly don't think he's a lock to beat out Mark Sanchez for the starting job there. I don't buy Philly making the move with a trade in mind, though. Foles and his inexpensive contract was a much better chip to play than a broken Bradford and his huge contract. Kelly, for whatever reason, hated Foles and sees Bradford as an upgrade, IMHO. Looks like a dumb move to me. I think he gave up picks to downgrade to an injury prone, overpriced, overrated QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 IF Bradford were to stay healthy he's better than Foles and pretty much all the potential veteran QB's out there not named Drew Brees. Before he went down in '13....and again in '14.....the Rams had surrounded him with some decent pieces following the RG3 trade and he had 14 TD's/4 INT's. But that's an enormous IF. Like asking Andrew Bogut to stay healthy. Hence why they made the deal when they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think the reason Kelly didn't like Foles was due to the fact that he's a statue back there. Bradford is way worse in that respect. They'll need to roll him out there in a Rascal Scooter this preseason just to make sure he gets to Week 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FidelioJet Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Maybe Bradford wouldn't hold the ball for 8 seconds per play. This is correct. Many if not most of Geno's sacks were his fault. He's gotta get rid of the ball sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 If healthy, Bradford is a franchise QB. If we acquired him, I would just go offensive line and protect him as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HessStation Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I would have rather Foles than Bradford. I would rather Sanchez than Bradford. Wow.

Also, when healthy, he hasn't been that good and he's had decent options there, but not great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgivs21 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Anyone that questions Bradfords ability as a QB is an idiot. Before he got hurt last year, he had 14 TDs & 4 INTs. Even though the injuries concern you, he has also played 2 full seasons. I think you put him on this team with weapons he's never had before - Decker & Marshall. A solid OL(which he never had in St. Louis) and I think this team has a very good shot at competing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there's players out there who would be great if they could just stay healthy. But if they can't you cannot take the chance and pay them starter money. Bringing in Bradford, and failing to draft a QB in the early rounds, is akin to naming Geno our midseason starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if they can't you cannot take the chance and pay them starter money. Bringing in Bradford, and failing to draft a QB in the early rounds, is akin to naming Geno our midseason starter. It's not, because he has also shown the ability to stay healthy. He's played 2 full seasons behind an O-Line that was pretty bad 3/4 seasons & without any weapons. I think we get him here, with a strong RB, 2 good receivers, kerley and an emerging receiving TE in Amaro in a spread offense that lets him make quick passes you are minimizing any risks that are out there. I know people want Foles, but I don't understand on how you can rip on Bradford for his injuries but not have the same questions about Foles?
