Maybe someone should show Bradford the highlights of Eric Couch's magnificent career with the Rams.

Super Agents + Entitlement + Money + #1 Pick = Guaranteed Holdout

Bradford doesn't possess a particularly strong arm as much as a live one and I think what makes him unique is his ability to deliver the ball in lanes using different arm angles, kind of like Kurt Warner only Warner's is more of a consistent flaw that works.This could play to his advantage but I'm a little curious with the holdout thing too.

QB is the position with the highest failure rate in the NFL draft.  He got a #1 pick.  Though he possesses the tools the NFL likes, he's not a shining example of any of them.  He's known to be smart on the field, and make his reads and go through his progressions.  Arm strength and accuracy have been a concern at times.  Bottom line is, he's milking the #1 pick for all it's worth, just in case he flames out.  Can't blame him really.

I was listening to Mike & Mike this morning and they said he could become the highest paid player in the NFL.  More power to him but damn, whose fault is it to pay him that much?  The Yams are desperate enough to pay a rookie without one downs experience $45 meelyon gayroneteed dollahs?

I may think differently than others about his abilities.  I think the guy is going to be very good.  But that doesn't mean squat.  At least wait til the guy has done 1/1000th of what Peyton Manning or Tom Brady have did on the field.

The guy is good.  That doesn't mean it will translate in the NFL.  Quite often a QB's success is as much about the situation, and team around him as anything else.  There are few QBs in deed that can carry an NFL team.

People said that about Mark Sanchez too.  Look at the him now.  He turned the Jets from a perennial 7 - 10 team to a playoff contender.  Also, they are very favored to go pretty far next year. 


PS> Fuck USC.

I'm saying I think the guy will be good.  I just can't understand a team rolling over and backing the Brink's truck up to his doorstep before he's played so much as one preseason game.  Let him come in and take the doormat Yams to the playoffs...then give him his spending cabbage.
