JetFaninMI Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Bridgewaters injury was pretty severe. They were talking career ending maybe? Not sure about because I have not seen any updates on him. Usually thats not a good sign. They keep Bradford until Bridgewater is actually taking reps. Until then Bradford is going nowhere. IF he is traded it won't be for a 1st rounder or multiple picks.

No way I didn't say that, I said Bradford and a 2nd Rnd pick. He had a great season, 71% completion %. 3,800 yds, 20TDs and only 5 picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trading anything for Sam Bradford, especially a number 1 and 2 is beyond unreasonable. He's just not very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Teddy comes back and is ok then maybe Bradford is available , but certainly not for a 1st rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rex-n-effect Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Bradford is basically a moderately better Fitz. He has and will drift from team to team for his career, like Fitz. Also like Fitz, he ends up being the most available of second tier QBs at a time when some team has a need to elevate a second rate QB to starter.

Why would we take a QB who has failed to take his team to the playoffs any year and is paid as if he is one of the NFL's elite? For example, why not go with Glennon or Tyrod Taylor (if he shakes lose) for about 5 to 6 Million less? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW I'm not sure what all the hype is on Bridgewater 1st year 14 TD's 9 Ints Second year 14 TD's 12 Ints 65 % completion rate 3100 yards avg Sacked 39 and 44 times Sam Bradford 20 TD's 5 Ints 71 % completion rate. 3800 yards - I would not mind those kind of stats with a great defense Sacked 37 times I don't think the Vikings are loaded with offensive talent other than Diggs and he was nic'ed up all year. Their O line is a bit on the crappy side as well Bradford should probably be in the 15 per range Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings are no where near a good offense and Bradford put up pretty good numbers. There is a reason why teams (and there are plenty of them) don't want to pay for a guy like Glennon yet you keep pushing a guy who has not taken a snap in 2 years.

Look at the teams Bradford has played on...the Rams had ZERO offensive weapons and Philly had Jordan Matthews. Eric Decker would be the best WR he has every had to throw to. Add Enuwa, hopefully an improved Devin Smith and Anderson and Peake - hmmm. Beef up the O-Line and find a TE and see what he can do. Glennon is still an unknown and Taylor is not that good - Buffalo was all about the running game. At least you know what Bradford can do with a lack of a supporting cast - and its not too shabby considering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
