Vikings trade for Bradford

[Fiji Mariner]

Seeing a 1st in 2017 and a 4th in 2018 for the disgruntled and painfully average Bradford. Didn't those Iggles give him $22 million guaranteed? Wonder how much was signing bonus and what the hell the Iggles were ever thinking...seems awful steep price to pay for Bradford.

 

[Litos]

How many times has he already been traded, and how many draft picks have been involved in them?

As I said in the other thread, good move for the future of the Beagles. They basically gave up on this year but got the better of the deal. Bradford has sucked since coming into the league. I think his passer rating last year was under 50.

 

[Fiji Mariner]

Good thing they got such a durable QB, bwahahaha

Iggles just turn $ and cap space into draft picks, solid move for them if they can afford it. Vikings seem to have pressed the panic button.

Man tough to give up a first and 4th or better for a temp fix. Must not be too hopefull for teddy's recovery.

 

[Fiji Mariner]

I've heard some reports that say Teddy's injury could be career altering, pretty gruesome for a mobile type QB.

Vikings are shoving all in on a mid range pocket pair with this type of logic.

while they are at they should bring that reach back Ponder back to the twin cities, I see AP being stacked with 10 and 11 man fronts.

 

[Punxsutawney]

Well, the Viking were pretty desperate for a QB after Bridgewater went down, as they've built a pretty good defense and need to maximize what's left of Peterson's prime.

With that being said, a first rounder seems steep. There must have been another team talking to the Eagles about Bradford.

Including the first overall pick the Rams used on him in 2010, three teams have used first round picks on Bradford since he entered the league.

He always seems to stay healthy enough and show just enough talent to convince some team that they can keep him healthy and make him more consistent.

I can't believe they gave up a 1st for that bum.

A 1st round pick for Bradford? PANIC BUTTON. He's not worth it

Bridgewater's injury must be really bad for the Vikings to do this.

 

[slashsteel]

a first?

bwahahahahaha

Horrible trade for the Vikings...........

 

[Shane Falco]

Desperation isn't just a ****** cologne. If they were into bad deals, they should've come knocking on the Steelers door for Jones.

 

[Supersteeler]

I can't believe they gave up a 1st for that bum.

And a 4th! If I was a Vikes fan I would be irate. The guy is rarely healthy and when he is healthy, he's barely mediocre.

 

[JayC]

i can't believe how much organizations overrate this bum

 

[Drink IRON City]

Holley cow batman. The winner in all this is Sammy boy, leagal ly STEALING..!!!!!



Salute the nation

 

[SteelerFan448]

I'm still laughing at this one. I get the Vikings needed a QB, but a first-round pick for Bradford is ridiculous.

 

[Stryker]

Congrats to the Eagles, Bradford will hand them a top 10 pick for sure now!

 

[Troglodyte]

When trading future 1st round picks, ALWAYS go the conditional route. Thier season could get blown up (again) and this could turn into a top-5 pick.

 

[Max Power]

The move is already paying dividends. Even with AP hurt, there is light at the end of the Purple Tunnel. Huge victory against the HATED Packers last night. Bradford and Diggs looking good.

Spooked Rogers looked like he wanted to cry. Call him Mr Fumble.

No one gave the Vikings a chance to win the Sunday Night game.

 

[Coach]

Mike Wallace is playing well. Will it last for the Vikings?

 

[Spike]

Bradford looked pretty good, though he got sold a raw deal with AP running on bad knees

and what have they done with that new barn having injured players have to be dragged through the whole stadium to get to the locker rooms?
