Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Trent Edwards, Kyle Orton, Sam Bradford... Fits the mold, no thanks Bradford is no Trent Edwards. Orton played at a better level more years than Bradford has yet to string together. Kevin Kolb might be a better analogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan130 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hopefully not. I think he is a very mediocre QB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packerland Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I can't see him as an upgrade. We'd be better off sticking with Tyrod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moshermw Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Anyone even considering this has not watched the Vikings play this season. I'm a secondary Vikes fan and watched all I could when not interfering with Bills. Night. Day. I'm serious. Any OL breakdown = auto sack. He's a statue - teams know right where to find him - in the pocket. If you think TT 3 and outs are painful to watch you ain't felt no pain. Don't get him.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 He just set the NFL record for highest completion percentage during a season at 71.6% and stayed mostly healthy this past year... Think he might be a good option if Bills don't bring Tyrod back...at least better than what else is out there... I wont Romo but he could work in the right system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Seemed a pretty inflated percentage but still a pretty solid season for the circumstances. Tv folks today saying he might have won the job in minny After what I heard about Bridgewaters leg. He probably will never play again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 hire Coughlin and trade for Romo Amen brother ! After what I heard about Bridgewaters leg. He probably will never play again WOW! what's up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agent 91 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Amen brother ! WOW! what's up with that? Dislocated knee and torn other stuff. They said there were players crying when they saw it. And the coach was visibly upset at the press conference even before being asked about him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Amen brother ! WOW! what's up with that? His knee was pretty ripped up. In addition to the kneecap, torn ligaments (ACL). There's been concern expressed (Schefter, quoting "NFL team doctor") that he might not come back at all, or if he does come back, he wouldn't be the same. Unclear if that's quoting a Doc who actually is treating Bridgewater or just someone guessing based on the general nature of the injury. At best it's the timeline of an ACL recovery - 6 months and then need to start working out to get back to form. It's not a sure bet he'll be back in 2017. Anyway, the Vikes have said they want to bring Bradford back, and given the severity of Bridgewater's injury, that only seems prudent. But yeah, to the other guys who posted, he is a classic pocket passer with limited escapability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxy312 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Another cast-off journeyman reject? Pass. How about a recap? Doug Flutie, Rob Johnson, Drew Bledsoe, Kelly Holcomb, Ryan Fitzpatrick, Kyle Orton, Matt Cassel, Vince Young, Kevin Kolb, and Tyrod Taylor. That's 10 guys that I can think of off the top of my head since 2000. Can we just stop already? I want to see this team draft QB every year until they find a franchise guy. Put all the guys in order in that list and add Sam Bradford and I still don't care. A chunk is a chunk is a chunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigK14094 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 All this QB shopping is interesting....but, the cap causes another big decision....do you pay the QB (TT, Bradford, whoever) or, do you pay gilmore the CB big bucks.....likelly can;t afford both. I would dump the CB and pay a good QB. (TT my choice, but whoever) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luxy312 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Yes, we can waste picks on duds like they are lottery scratch tickets, while the rest of the team falls apart. You really make my point for me. In the history of the NFL, how many Superbowls have been won by journeyman versus players that are draft picks? I can only think of Peyton Manning last year and Brad Johnson back when Tampa Bay won it. In both cases, it really was the defense that won the games. You may remember more, but the simple reality is that a vast majority of Superbowl winning teams have done so with quarterbacks that they've drafted and NOT picked up in free agency or via trade. The "waste" if you want to characterize it as such is picking up 10 starting QB's in 16 years that are all garbage. Basically, ignoring the most important position on the field.

Marty McFly Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 I could see him in MIN for a while with Teddy Bridgewater possibly not being ready to begin the 2017 season. Yea how bad is that injury? Dislocated knee cap rite? jesus how does that even happen? With Teddys career in question I would be really surprised if MIN let Bradford go All this QB shopping is interesting....but, the cap causes another big decision....do you pay the QB (TT, Bradford, whoever) or, do you pay gilmore the CB big bucks.....likelly can;t afford both. I would dump the CB and pay a good QB. (TT my choice, but whoever) Agree. Ill keep Tyrod. Kid leaves it all on the field and plays with heart. Gilmore plays corner pu$$y scared to make a tackle and get rough in a contact sport. Our run defense was bad and part of that is people that play scared like Gilmore.
