If he works on his footwork and tweaks his throwing motion, there is no reason not to believe he can't be a Carson Palmer-type quarterback.

And Bradford is only 1 1/2 years into a starting Q.B. position in one of the toughest conferences in college football. He already has excellent mechanics? I would say he has a lot of potential to be a great one, wouldn't you? Maybe his accuracy has something to do with his receivers looking like they are wide open constantly, I looked at the highlights you posted and one thing I noticed from them is that he rarely puts a ball where a defender can get it. (only 3 INT's this yr) He tends to lead his receiver away from the defender, puts a ball where the receiver isnt slowing down to catch it, uses strength passes and touch passes extremely well, and in those same highlights I saw him make some throws you said he doesn't make. Who is to say whether Stafford or Bradford is the better Q.B. and why even bother debating it.

I haven't seen him throw a 15 yard out or a 20 yard square-in on a frozen rope when one of his WRs is wearing a DB like a cheap suit. It doesn't mean he can't, but to assume he can because he can play pitch and catch against f***ing Baylor is just flat out reeruned.

My only point is that I have watched him for 1 1/2 yrs., and to answer your comment..... yes, I have seen him throw a 15 yard out and 20yrd square in on a frozen rope. And I have seen him put the ball in a hole between two and three defenders covering the receiver like a cheap suit.
