Vikings Trading For Sam Bradford

[CF74]

How many teams have been hosed by this never has been? Wow, just wow....

 

[Zordon]

Maxwell, Murray, and now Bradford. Philly somehow is on a roll moving bad contracts off their books.

It started with the Dream Team. Zero lasting effects from that.

 

[viman96]

Not quite. The Eagles had the 8th pick and will likely drop to the mid teens or later so that is a lot of value to lose. Having said that dumping Bradford for a great move.

 

[Direwolf63]

I had to put extra whiskey in my morning coffee after I heard about this.

Insane

 

[Denim Chicken]

Vines pretty much universally being condemned for stupidity

 

[sideon]

Oops

They have to win enough games to hurt the Browns pick, which wouldn't matter since the Browns will have a top 5 pick regardless

Also, if you want to get technical, a 2017 first rounder is the equivalent of a 2016 second rounder. But yeah, this sucks.

 

[Hawkeye19]

Smart move by Philly, makes the price to move up and get Wentz a bit more manageable.

Bradford has to be the most expensive QB ever, 1st round pick with a huge pay day, traded for a second and some change, gets a new huge contract and gets traded again for a 1st and 4th. All this for a injury prone QB who has WON nothing.

Lol...for sure. Bradford has had a ridiculous career.

 

[Risen Star]

So the 4th can escalate as high as a 2nd depending on performance.

I have to determine why I need to go on another day.

LOLOLOL

 

[BAZ]

You can judge me if you want but I'm going to buy an Eagles jersey just to see how it feels.

I could always tell...

 

[Hawkeye19]

Eagles are smarter than people give them credit for. What they've done this offseason has been very smart.

I agree. They got out from under the Chip Kelly era as quickly as possible and are trying to fix the mistakes as quickly as possible.

That said-- I think they were over-aggressive. They paid way too much for Wentz and put all their eggs in that basket. They are still screwed is he doesn't develop.

[dogberry]

Bradford was a finance major at OU.

 

[Floatyworm]

Wow....had not heard that! He's a good kid. I hope he makes it back.

Yup true story on Bridgewater. Trainer couldn't find a pulse in his leg. TB got lucky....

 

[dmq]

An extension for Bradford would extend his lead as the most lavishly paid garbage QB of all time and no one else is even close.

 

[okstateCowboy]

So.... What could we possibly get for Romo then?

 

[bayeslife]

That's actually not bad for the Vikings but it's still a one year rental for a 1st

 

[BAZ]

Eagles are smarter than people give them credit for. What they've done this offseason has been very smart.

No, just no. What they did this season was undoing Chip Kelly's mistakes after they made him GM. This is an amazing trade for them, but I put the majority of that on the Vikings incompetence. I'm expecting Bradford to go down week six and the Eagles to get a top ten pick.

Per Schefter.

This sucks because they just got back into the first round next year. Not to mention they got rid of one of the absolute worst quarterbacks in the league. Minnesota is loaded with young talent, but no enough to overcome how terrible Sam Bradford is.
