Sam Bradford's pro day workout should clear up top of NFL draft

[Dirtbag59]

Of course. Had to have a wonderful pro day. Man so glad we beat the Rams this year.

Oh well...I was hoping he would look just okay so he would fall to #4.

Me too.

The Rams will most likely pick him up at #1. However, they have to show that they are interested. They have to convince other teams that they are going to pick him up to raise offers from other teams. They'll be other teams who want SB that might be willing to trade for that #1. So even if the Rams weren't interested. They have to show that they are. All teams play the smokescreen game.

Look the Rams had 9 people at his pro day. Who knows how many the Skins had, but of course the Rams are going to run up to him and talk with him with the first pick.

But..... don't count your chickens before they hatch. Most likely you all are correct in saying he will be a Ram. Just keep in mind though it doesn't leave out the possibility of a team moving up to get him. All that matters is the price is right for the Rams. We act like we have to have him and the Rams jack up the price to see what we will give them. It's obvious the Rams are either really interested or playing the game in order to see who will call them with a trade offer to get Bradford.

As much as I keep hoping the Skins pick up Bradford due to his accuracy, I think he looks like a goof ball. But so did Eli Manning.

Skins aren't trading up to #1.

With today's showing I think it's pretty safe to say Bradford is going to be a Ram.

Well, I mean, you can't trade up ahead of the Rams, so you'd have to either make them an offer they can't refuse (and I really mean an obvious headscratcher), or you just have to call their bluff.

I personally feel that Bradford is going to benefit greatly from going to one of the weakest divisions, where his contributions can be felt immediately. Whether he ultimately succeeds as a player depends on how well the Rams put talent around him. But they've got a decent foundation there.

Rams fall asleep, miss getting pick in on time, we already have trade deal worked out with #2 in this situation. Nevermind that they'll have him signed before the draft.

It might work if we get Riggo to take the Rams representatives out to a strip club and gets them hammered.

or simply order the whole Rams representatives drinks to be sent over to their table at the draft with crushed Benadryl pills in them.

I am willing to give them Andre Carter, Jason Campbell, and this years and next years first round draft choice.

If that is not enough throw in this years second

Probably doesn't get it done, unless they are just lukewarm on the Bradford/Suh/McCoy options.

That's a trade we could win, but only if Bradford ended up being the next coming. I'm on record saying that he's no ones savior.

are you kidding me? who would block for him? in your scenario, we take him, and then wait until the 4th to draft again? no thanks.

That would get it done...but now you don't have a team.

I mean, in a world where the only things that matter are Sam Bradford jersey sales, you've done well for yourself. In a world where wins and losses matter, you've ensured about four or so additional losses, even if Bradford pans out.

Next years free agent class will be off the hook. If he is the next superstar QB, I would give the entire Draft this year and next.

WOW. I feel much better knowing that people were simply saying I had a man crush and needed to get over it.

I like Bradford and I too belive we need to find a way to pick him up. Simply due to his accuracy. But I don't think I'd give up the farm for him.

I'd like to think giving JC helps out the Rams QB issue, giving them Carter helps out their D-line, Giving them the #4 pick either enables them to pick up Clausen, McCoy, or Tebow at #4 or a lineman they need either defense or offense. I might even throw in next years 1st rounder but no way do I throw in our #2 or any more of this yrs draft to get him. The numbers as some of you like to point out would not match. Although what price do you put on a franchise QB?

One media outlet pointed out that he was the best QB they have seen since Troy Aikman. I wasn't fascinated with him but will say he wasn't a bad QB for a Cowgirl.
