Alex Smith went #1 overall how'd that work out?
A guy not being from a pro style offense and not making NFL throws sets him back in a huge way, you can bring up Sanchez all you like if he had gone back to SC and was in this class he'd be the #1 QB. |

Bradford should go to a team that runs the WCO and be allowed to sit for 2-3 years like Kolb.
That's the only way I see him being successful.

On top of the system issues, the issue is, this is a guy that never got hit and as soon as he got hit, he got hurt.

That wasn't the first time he had ever been hit and it wasn't like he fell down on his shoulder without a 250lb LB right on top of him. It was a good shot, but yeah, I'm concerned about his durability as well. That's my main concern.

Gresham is most likely the best NFL player from that team, he had come out last year he was easily a top 15 pick.

He will be getting open in the only spaces where our QB has any accuracy. He's worth more to a team like this than another team, IMO. Furthermore, if we were to draft a guy like Clausen (won't happen), TEs are excellent investments.

Looks like more than just a few passes longer than 5 yards...

I didn't say he threw 5 yard passes, I said he threw passes to guys who were open by 5 yards, which is pretty heavily illustrated in that video.
It's hard to judge accuracy when he doesn't have to make tight throws. |

You'll also note, that over half of those highlight catches are by, players, other than the ones touted here tonight, which is partly why I selected it.

Are you trying to say he's throwing to shitty players?
Ryan Broyles will almost assuredly play in the NFL, the only WR he threw to that didn't make it was Williams ( i think that was his name) mainly because he was to slow. I've seen Bradford play a bunch of times I don't need to watch a full 6 minute video to realize what the Oklahoma system is. OU's system basically spreads out the other team and lets their elite talent at the skill positions pick it apart, all Bradford had to do was read the single coverage presnap or actually look to the sideline for his audible and get the ball out, it's the same stuff Missouri does, etc etc. Just OU has better players than Missouri does for the most part. |

Fraility, ability to take snaps under center, spread system = legitimate concerns.
Saying he has a bad arm and/or isn't that accurate is just plain dumb and untrue. He threw some beautiful balls in the Championship game. IIRC, there were a lot of dropped balls in that game.

His arm is ok, but even that should be questioned after an injury to his throwing shoulder.
