jwhit34 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Sam Bradford will probably not be retained by the Rams, it is cost prohibitive to do so given his injury history. So, he will probably be available just like Drew Brees was back in the mid 2000s. The Bills may be the best fit for him and be the most attractive option for him for the following reasons: 1. A good young WR corps. 2. Overall talent on the team, especially on defense. 3. A clear-cut path to being the #1 QB. 4. The Bills can probably outspend other contenders for his services. I think it would be brilliant - they don't have a 1st round pick, EJ is not looking very good, the Bills have the roster to win now. The one bad thing is the O-line but it has potential, if they could sign a serviceable guard they probably would be pretty good. I say start the Bradford to Buffalo campaign now a la Takeo Spikes.

dayman Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) Bradford isn't very good so that is the main thing stopping him from being Drew Brees. Anyway, it is better than EJ or Orton for next year (even if most things would be). Was kind of hoping Cousins worked out great and something crazy landed us RGIII.

Kaz Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) Yes, let's get an oft-injured QB. That is clearly the answer. Edited September 29, 2014 by Kaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'd take a 2 year, backup type contract for Bradford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billshank Redemption Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Not at all opposed to it, without a first rounder we don't have a ton of options anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. WEO Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Huh? An injured bust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'm in. The people calling Bradford an injured bust are the same people that would have labeled Brees in the same manner. We don't have a first rounder, and Bradford can be had for a reasonable price most likely. Change of scenery can do wonders for some players.

jwhit34 Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Brees is more talented. Bradford has showed signs of being a good QB. His stats: 2012 - 16 games, 3,702 yards (231/game), 21 TDs, 13 int. 2013 - 7 games, 1,687 yards (241/game), 14 TDs, 4 int. In 2013, the Rams' leading receivers were Jared Cook (671 yards), Chris Givens (569) and Tavon Austin (418). In 2012 they were led by Givens (698) and Brandon Gibson (691). He did pretty well with below average receivers and a running game that was nowhere near the Bills (2012 - Stephen Jackson in decline and '13 was Zac Stacy, a decent back but not as good as Spiller and Jackson). Yes, he's had 2 ACL injuries, it would carry risk, but if he can pass a physical exam is he less risky than EJ or another veteran QB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
