Schefter just tweeted it's a done deal. Eagles get Vikes' 1st round pick next year and a 4th round 2018 pick.

Does this mean Teddy Bridgewater will never play again? If the story is true, Vince, that's an awfully high price to pay for a one-year starter or a backup.
Frankly, this one smacks of desperation, if it's true. Bradford has been hurt often and has not really panned out for anyone. Yet you're giving up a first and fourth? If he's a stopgap, and you just need a game manager, Shaun Hill can do that. If he's Teddy's future backup, a first and fourth is a lot to pay.
The only way this makes any sense to me - and even then it doesn't, not really - is if you think Teddy's career is over, and if you think you can get more out of Bradford than what he's shown so far in his career."The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

I would like to believe that the competent GM would never trade 1st and 4th rounders to rent a mediocre, injury-prone QB for about 12 months. Bridgewater's injury has gotta be worse than what the Vikes are saying.
I seriously believe Johnny Football would look good in purple.

They believe Bradford is a lot better than Hill. They think this is a Super Bowl year. AP takes pressure off a QB.Originally posted by Fritz View PostBradford has been hurt often and has not really panned out for anyone. Yet you're giving up a first and fourth?

Yeah I agree it's desperate attempt to hang onto a fleeting and unrealistic dream. Someone tweeted that last week the Vikings had a decent QB and a first round pick.
Now they have neither.
Someone else noted that in the last year, Bradford has been traded for 2 firsts, a second, two fourths and Nick Foles.

If he was sober and had been in camp, I completely agree. Exactly kind of improvisor that could make an emergency QB situation work. Not sure how that holds up for the entire year though. Not sure Johnny holds up entire year eitherOriginally posted by Anti-Polar Bear View PostI would like to believe that the competent GM would never trade 1st and 4th rounders to rent a mediocre, injury-prone QB for about 12 months.

Trading a first round pick next year for this guy is ridiculous. PFT Commentator wrote that going by Sam Bradford's transaction wire, he looks like a one man Ponzi scheme.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

I don't expect them to give up, not in the first year of a new stadium. But is one year of Bradford really that much better (a 1st and a fourth better) than Shaun Hill?Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View PostGood deal for the Vikings. Great deal for Philly.
Bradford is flawed, but what are Vikings to do? Just write-off the 2016 season that they loaded-up for? They have AP and a defense now.
Vikings can't count on Bridgewater for the future. They made the best of a tough situation.Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

Shaun may be over the Hill. We have good memories of his spot play a few years ago. The Vikes know better than us what he has.Originally posted by pbmax View PostI don't expect them to give up, not in the first year of a new stadium.

Bradford might flourish with MN, he has a lot of talent, despite talent for getting injured.
MN took a big risk, I grant you. But better to take a risk than waste an opportunity.

Could be hedge against Bridgewater's injury. Makes some more sense that way, but a first next year might net more QB than Bradford.Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View PostI agree with the norseman, he is already on to third stage of grief:
