If he's going in the top 10 now, there's no good reason to wait. Look what happened to Matt Leinart. He left millions of dollars on the table by staying in school and if he'd have had a severe injury that last year it could have been much more.

I guess the question is, is he really going to go in the top 10? Assume you are KC and/or Detroit. Bradford comes in for a workout and displays poor foot skills because he's taken 90% of his drops from shotgun and needs a lot of work on reading defenses, adjusting, etc. You know it is very likely that he won't step on the field for 1 1/2 years. Are you going to spend that draft pick and all that money on him?
