I seriously really just don't understand how Bradford keeps netting these high draft picks.
To date Sam Bradford has cost NFL teams the 1st overall pick, another 1st round pick, a 2nd round pick, two 4th round picks, and Nick Foles (a 5th rounder was returned to one of those teams).
Oh, and the paltry sum of $112m.
....all that for a guy who is at the very threshold of being a passable QB and being a terrible QB. Career 60.1% completion, 6.5 YPA, 1.5 TD:INT ratio, 81.0 QB Rating. Generally anything below 60% and 80 QB Rating isn't considered an NFL starter. So he is riiiiiiight on the border of being a truly bad QB. Also he's missed THIRTY-THREE games in his 6 year career.
- - - - - - - - - -
"Fun" facts: The 6 picks directly after Bradford have all been to the Pro Bowl. 3 of the 4 picks directly after him have been to the Pro Bowl 4 times in their 6 year careers. Those same three total 9 1st Team All-Pros.
