Holy Moses, is this shocking. The Vikings apparently trade their 2017 1st round pick and a 4th to the Eagles for Bradford. Is it wrong to assume the long-term news for Teddy is grim for them to burn a 1st round pick on a QB so soon?
This trade really surprises me. It doesn't make too much sense to me.
Let's say that yes, Bridgewater's injury is potentially career threatening, is Sam Bradford really worth the prospect that you could have gotten with that first overall pick? I know it's a win-now league, but that seems extreme.
And if it's not career threatening and it's probable that Teddy is back beginning of next year a la Brady, Palmer, and however many others, you just burnt a first (and whatever late rounder it was) for essentially a one year renter.
Not to mention Bradford might be joining Bridgewater on IR at any moment.
