(and obviouslly we don't have that now)

Dude, Bradford may have hurt himself by staying in school. Now he has a shoulder which has been injured twice and that will make personnel people worried. Bradford has developed a reputation among some people for being made of glass.

Ok man but Adrian Peterson was made of "glass" in college also, well now everyone is on his Jock... I understand he hurt his shoulder but obviously it hasn't hurt his draft stock too much.. And the reason is because he has Manning like attributes on and off the field.

The problem though is that whoever takes him is going to have to make a decision on him, more or less "in the dark" on his physical state.

I mean, every team will have medical reports on him, but no one is going to get to see him throw the football before his personal workout, and those are somewhat valueless anyway because it's not a standardized field like the combine, or at least a pro day.

So it makes him the ultimate high-risk, high-reward prospect. On the pro side, he was really, really good in pretty much perfect conditions two years ago. On the downside, what have you done for me lately? Not a whole lot.

Clausen is much safer because of that, but it's because he's safer that we don't have a chance in hell of getting him. Not that he'd be a good investment with this team anyway.

Bradford runs the spread offense which means he has little experience making pre-snap reads and he rarely operates from under center.

He has an above average arm not great, good height and a Heisman. Almost all quarterbacks are a gamble, but the real question is how fast does he process info and seeing as how the offense that he runs doesn't give NFL scouts an answer to that very important question he will be a gamble on draft day.

I'm not even including the fact that he just busted up his throwing shoulder.

I would take Him or Clausen, I just think this team HAS to address the QB position through the draft next yr. I really hope this team doesn't go after A qb in F.A, (Brady Quinn, Kevin Kolb)

Many of you all seem to forget what Bradford did last year. Winning the Heisman, running the most efficient offense in college football history, leading OU to the national title game just to name a few. Granted he did have two All-American linemen protecting his blind side so we should probably look to draft OKSU's Russell Okung or UMD's Bruce Campbell before we consider drafting Bradford. Hopefully after the pro-days, workouts, and combines he'll fall to the 2nd round (though not likely). I think it would be cool to see Bradford as a Redskin; he is part native american. Having an authentic native american leading a team whose mascot is a native american would be awesome.

Great, bring in a damaged QB........ That makes since?????

Can anyone speak to what Clausen is like off the field?

No DC these guys forget about what Bradford has accomplished, leading the best Offense in College History.. I have seen this kid many times in person and he is as cool off the field as he is on the field. I know I am making a homer pick but we would be in great hands drafting Sam.

Again ask Minnesota about drafting an INJURED STAR out of college... O yea that guy is the Best player in the league right now

When will the Skins wake up and realize they need to seriously address the O Line?

oline or qb? What's harder to find? I say a LEGIT QB, so until we find our guy of the future we will continue to put the Oline as a second option.. I'm not saying it's right but that's the NFL

Here, here Ruhskins!!!!! That guy takes one pop and lands on that shoulder and whammo another wasted #1 pick on a QB. I still say take a QB second round. Lefevour will be around I think. There has to be some QBs we could get second round.
