Dude has made so much coin for such little output. One of the last to cash in on the old system pre-wage scale.

The Draft used to be a free for all where 1st rounders made huge coin, and many of the top picks were total busts. The Rookie wage scale makes a lot of sense.

Sam Bradford reportedly very mad about Eagles trading for No. 2 pick

LOL. Shut up, Sam.

How sad that the two teams who moved heaven and earth to try to get a franchise QB in this draft are the two teams that had/have him as their QB.

The trade downs seem to work for every team except the Browns. I am pretty sure the Browns would like to have Sammy Watkins and Julio Jones instead of the players they drafted with those trade downs. So while I think the Eagles gave up a solid price for pick 2 it's not as though they completely !@#$ed themselves that much. This year they lose a 3rd and 4th, next year they give up their 1st, and the year after a 2nd. That's not a complete bankrupting of picks for that trade up and the Eagles desperately need a QB.

 

While the Browns still get to pick at slot number 8 and they get 2 good picks later in the draft at pick 77 and 100, then they set themselves up with an extra 1st next year and an extra 2nd the year after. For a team looking to rebuild they get quantity this year and quality the two years after that should set them up nice for the long haul while still getting a good player this year.
