Agreed. But may be new life in minny. If he can limit turnovers

but for a #1 pick. I'm not sure about that.

Good trade, they weren't gonna win with Sam anyways, probably injured by week 8. Might as well start the Wentz era early.

Looks like the only winning the Eagles will do this season is on America's Got Talent.

Vikes gave away too much. Is there really much of an upgrade from Hill to Bradford?

I don't think they gave away too much. First of all we are very good defense and running team......that is what wins championships. Without a trade we would probably had the worse qb's in the league. That would prevent a playoff run.

The second thing is the first round pick should be late first round pick. Any draft pick is based on you thinking they will,help your team. There is no guarantee. Look at all of the high first round draft picks that were busts.

there is no guarantee Teddy will come back next year or ever based on the news. Until they do surgery and rehab starts you never know.

realisticly where would Bradford rank in terms of starting qb's in a qb driven league? I would say somewhere in the middle of the pack. Now a week before the season you are getting some other teams starting qb for a first round pick. Seems fair to me.

lastly Bradford is entering his prime for a qb based on his age and experience. He has never had any good receivers to throw to ever. He is accurate on the short passes and is a better deep passer than teddy. I don't see it as a drop off at that position. Last year teddy had 14 td's and 9 interceptions plus only 200 yards a game and we should have played Arizona in championship game.

The one big concern for me is the two knee operations already but sometimes you have to take a chance and roll the dice.

Seems like Vikings are the team qbs always want to go to. Understandable considering they really are a WR and a QB away from a superbowl. So I am sure this was Bradford saying definitely yes. But he's so fragile. Same with Goff. Goff has a sam bradford built. Carson Wentz I kinda like though.

just think if Philly had Goff and not Wentz, the trade would have never happened,

Personally, I think giving up the #1 pick for freaking Sam Bradford was flat stupid. With out Bridge this team is maybe 6-10. So that leads to a decent draft pick next year. I think bringing in Bradford is not that much help to boost that pick... so why then would you give it up. Do we see Bradford taking them to 10-6. I don't. If he is even on the field in November, I will be shocked. Hill... well... he will give you the 6-10, i refer too above. So, I personally didnt understand why you go after a guy that is average at best and cant stay upright with your #1 pick... just didnt make sense to me...

Some of you guys mention Wentz. Talented yes but he is getting thrown to the wolves in Philly. As we all know, the fans there wont be the ALL SUPPORTIVE CLAN from N Dakota State. Where you throw 3 picks and they still love you

He has the talent but dang that is a tough situation there...

Great move for the Vikes.
Bradford is vastly underrated.
He suffered for years with the Rams, behind a terrible, terrible offensive lines. He got pounded, injuries galore.
I think in this situation he will thrive. If he does not get hurt... that is the worry.
We shall see.
