2009 - Bradford wins Heisman and was "thinking" of coming out. WOULD HAVE 100% been the Lions pick over Stafford as documented by Gary Danielson years ago.Maelstrom88 wrote: No what Spielman should have done was not roll with Hill as the backup just so teddy felt safe in his job security. If they knew Hill wasn't someone they felt comfortable starting then why waste a roster spot on him? Why not sign Nick Foles for no draft pick compensation? Why not draft a better backup qb behind teddy whenever teddy really hasn't been that great anyways? Why not haggle and laugh when the Eagles wanted a first for a QB who they wanted out anyways after drafting Wentz. Trading a first for Sam was more stupid than taking Ponder in the first as high as they did and that's really saying something.
2010 - AFTER missing most of season at OU with broken clavicle Bradford is STILL taken #1 overall by Rams
2015 - Coming off TWO ACL tears Bradford is STILL traded to Eagles for a 2nd, 4th AND their starting QB Nick Foles
2016 - Bradford is traded to the Vikings for a 1st and 4th
NONE of the above happens with a player who is not SUPREMELY talented, and it ALL happened because of Sam's abilities.
Folks need to get over it and realize he was dealt a crap hand in Minnesota this year.
Rebuild the line, PRAY Treadwell isn't a complete bust and I promise you Sam Bradford is more than capable of winning a Super Bowl or two.
Give this cat time to throw and completing passes for first downs will not be a problem. Give him a legit run game too and the sky is the limit for this offense because there is no part of this field he can't reach with ease.
For those who prefer a running QB, I can't help you as nothing is going to change your mind.
