Interesting piece from the NY Times on Bradford:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/10/sp...r=2&ref=sports
Gil Brandt says he's an easy top ten pick, and a scout says he's a "no brainer" #1 pick and compares him to Aikman.
It's interesting how people can watch the same tape and come away with such different conclusions. |
I'm not sure where you're getting all this supposed "hate" for Bradford.
Because people think he's the 3rd prospect behind Sanchez and Stafford?
Almost universally, people have said that he has the physical tools it will take to be successful, but is going to have to learn playing from under center, learning to drop properly, and reading defenses - something the other two have a huge head start on.
If that is what you consider hate, then you have really thin skin.
And regarding Brandt, he thinks Tebow is a late 1st round pick, so forgive me if I'm not fawning over his opinion. And I noticed the Times piece didn't say a word about his question marks.
If you've watched ANY sports programming over the course of the past 48 hours, almost universally, the talking heads have talked about there being a huge learning curve for Bradford because of the system he plays in - something the other two hold a huge advantage over Bradford.
I'm not sure why this is so ****ing complicated for people.
