Chip Kelly seems to really want Mariotta.

I like Bradford.

He's Fitzpatrick with talent.

He's made of glass though. He's started 16 games in only 2 of his 5 NFL seasons. In 2011 he started 10 games and threw 6 TDs. He's started 7 games in the last 2 years.

I'd be OK if we stayed away from both of these guys. I wouldn't mind Foles, but he was a turnover machine last year when he was healthy.

Re: Please step in Mr. Whaley

Either one is an upgrade so I'm all for it.

Re: Please step in Mr. Whaley

bradford would be a very nice addition. then hope he stays healthy

Re: Please step in Mr. Whaley

I really don't understand the interest in Bradford. The guy has played in 49 games and has a career 58.6 comp. %, 6.29 YPA, 79.3 passer rating. Those stats are the same or worse than EJ at this point and he's had way more time and opportunities to develop. And his injury issues are alarming. What is it exactly that people like so much about Bradford?

Re: Please step in Mr. Whaley

A agree on the Bradford questions. He's been an OK QB when healthy but he's blown the same knee multiple times, why would any team take that chance before he proves he can last a season.

Plus, didn't he sign before the rookie salary cap? Not only is he very risky, he's very expensive. He made $9,000,000 in 2014. Orton came with more experience and was only around $5,500,000 - which was far too much for what the Bills got.

Because he was the #1 pick. Draft status follows a guy for years.

Re: Please step in Mr. Whaley

If Bradford is cut loose and you can get him for a reasonable contract based on performance, it would make sense.
I think Foles is a product of Kelly's system. I'd rather bring Glennon in if the Bucs keep the pick and choose Mariotta or Winston.
Bradford, EJ, and Glennon would be a decent stable of qbs (yes, I know I am in the minority in still holding out hope for Manuel.)

I am in that minority too. He has shown flashes, Parcells was big on giving a guy that third year if he had shown he was capable. I think EJ has. That article I linked to in the 2015 QB thread really surprised me on his measurables.

I don't like Bradford, for the same reasons St. Louis is getting rid of him. I love the idea of trying to trade for Glennon.
