So I was just watching Sam Bradford's Highlights and Clausen's highlights, and I got to say that all Sam throws are short passes, and mid passes, rarely to never did he go deep. Also part of the reason why he had so many yards passing is because his receivers would get twice the yards on a throw from Sam (if Sam threw the ball 7 yards the receivers would pick up 14yards for example). Clausen however, throws the ball all over the field. The farthest throw I saw him make and complete was a 55 yard ball, where as Bradfords farthest from what I saw was 40 yards. I'm sure people are saying hey throwing deep balls doesn't matter that much, but they do, especially in the NFL they sure as hell matter. Also in the NFL the corners know how to wrap up and take down receivers after the catch unlike Washington or Baylor for example from his highlight tape where Jauquin Igelisas or Ryan Broyles turns a 7 yard slant into a 65 yard TD. Clausen definitely seems like the NFL QB for sure, plus he didn't play with a good OL anyway so he's already fit for the skins. I'm very curious to see how far Sam can throw..
