D521646 Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Both Tasker and that other guy think Bradham is a lock for LB? He player ok last night but up until last night he was virtually non existent in my eyes? Did I miss something about his play? Tim-
Yard Monkey Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Yes. You probably missed every play from OTA's, mini camp, meeting/ film room behavior and practice. Also, you probably missed the conversation Tasker had with coaches about him...
D521646 Posted August 31, 2012 Author Posted August 31, 2012 Ok, no I get it, there is a lot I don't see, but practices and OTA"s film room all of that is supposed to translate on to the field. I loved his college career and I like him and hope he makes the team, but I was just really curious that the announcers had him penciled in without even so much a discussion about it? I thought that it was strange since I hadn't really seen anything from him until last night. He was all ovedr the field last night and is a unapologetic hitter, but he did look a few steps too slow on a lot of plays. Tim-
FluffHead Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 4th round draft picks are rarely cut during their rookie season
bouds Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 he's a lock because there's no other lbers on this team, but i agree with you, hasn't really looked good in preseason.
KOKBILLS Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 He was also thought to be one of the best ST's players in this past Draft regardless of position...Not only will he likely make the Team...He'll probably be active on most Sundays...
K-9 Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Agree that if Bradham made the team, it was based on his performance in camp. As is the case for every player really. If last night's game was the measuring stick to see if he made the team, I'd cut him. He was noticeably terrible in pass coverage and pretty much not noticeable anywhere else. GO BILLS!!!
bizell Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 it took bradham a few years for it to all finally 'click' at fsu.
NoSaint Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 To be cut at his draft slot, he'd have to screw up pretty terribly. And consistently.
MattM Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 it took bradham a few years for it to all finally 'click' at fsu. Not quite sure what you mean by this, as I thought Bradham led FSU in tackles his last three seasons there. Sarcasm perhaps?
bizell Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 (edited) Not quite sure what you mean by this, as I thought Bradham led FSU in tackles his last three seasons there. Sarcasm perhaps? as a person that watched bradham all his years at fsu, no, it wasn't sarcasm. he might have made tackles but he always seemed out of position or making a boneheaded play. edit: it also could have had to do with him having to play under mickey andrews' defenses his first few years Edited August 31, 2012 by bizell

He player ok last night but up until last night he was virtually non existent in my eyes? Did I miss something about his play? Tim- Yeah he made some stud type of plays in scrub time at LB. Also made some nice ST plays. He has generally been considered as a bright spot along with Ron Brooks during the Bills' poor Pre-Season.
Mark Long Beach Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 Yeah he made some stud type of plays in scrub time at LB. Also made some nice ST plays. He has generally been considered as a bright spot along with Ron Brooks during the Bills' poor Pre-Season. Man I haven't seen it. What I have seen, is him around the ball. Unfortunately because he's been picked on and is two plus yards behind the play. He's a rookie and it's early, but he's definitely not ready for prime-time.
Ramius Posted August 31, 2012 Posted August 31, 2012 as a person that watched bradham all his years at fsu, no, it wasn't sarcasm. he might have made tackles but he always seemed out of position or making a boneheaded play. edit: it also could have had to do with him having to play under mickey andrews' defenses his first few years Bradham really blossomed under Stoops. They're definitely missing his on-field leadership down here this fall (according to the coaches/media types). I think that he's simply a 4th round rookie adjusting to the pro game. He didn't look spectacular by any means, but he didn't look bad either. They've had him in a lot of coverage this preseason. Lots of times he's been right with assignment and the ball has gone elsewhere. I haven't seen the Bills let him freelance in the games thusfar.
