Why the Vikings didn't overpay for Sam Bradford...

[broncosmitty]

The trade was a risk. Make the Super Bowl and it is worth it. Miss the playoffs and it works out about as well as the Titanic's 1st voyage.
Yet, if you minny hooplans are happy with him, extend away.

That extension gets my endorsement.

If we extend "Checkdown" Bradford this off-season, Spielman should be fired on the spot. He has another year, let him earn the extension.

The offensive line and skill position players have done him very few favors as a whole, but an extension is absolutely ludicrous at this point.

There might not be a player who has made more while doing so little in the history of the game.

Bleacher Report's Jason Cole provided the latest details on Bridgewater's status Friday, including an updated timetable that wouldn't see the QB back to full strength until March 2018:

Another non playoff season for the Vikings

That I don't agree with. The thought was that Teddy was likely out 2017 too and with how devastating that injury was and is, I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays again.

The idea of burying us before February is a little absurd since we pretty much declared that he was hurt too badly to help us anyways when the Bradford trade was made. Fix the O-line and running game through free agency and the draft and you have a playoff team.

I had no idea that his injury was so extensive

tough break for him and the Vikings

I just don't trust Bradford, now asking him to stay healthy for another year is almost a tall order.

That I can see. But it was a miracle he lasted as 15 full games behind our horse shit OL, maybe his injury days are behind him.

Maybe so.

I also hate his competitiveness, he made a big fuss about Wentz being drafted and forced a trade, weak.

Again, I agree with you, very weak. If he pulls the same stunt with any QB that the Vikings might draft, I'll tear him a new one on here.

It will be interesting when and if Bridgewater comes back healthy and ready to go. But that won't be to another year, so we will see.

As long as he can continue to dump off 3 yard passes, he can keep upright.

Yeah, he is great at that.

I hope he can play again, but I am not counting on it.
