The compensation did reek of desperation. This was a "do or die" / "our window of opportunity is closing this year" kind of move.
Life has to suck so hard for Vikings fans right now.
That 80 QB rating is going to be so good for the Vikes.I do notice a pattern with Bradford.
He's slowly working his way north.
Oklahoma
St. Louis
Philadelphia
Minnesota
Next stop....the CFL???
Vikes with Bradford is a peak at 8 wins. Their defense is good but it's not dominant. It's more like our 2014 defense that looks good when they have a dominant run game and a grind it out offense.
Keep in mind that AP is in his 30s and has an injury history. He is never a given.
I'm with you. It's not like he's replacing someone like Roethlisberger.The Vikings aren't built around the QB having to put up huge stats.
Peak 8 wins?
They won 11 with Bridgewater throwing 14 TD's and 9 INT's last year, I'm fairly certain Bradford can manage something similar to that. Barring further serious injuries this at least a 7 win team with upside of 10 or 11.
At any rate, yea, it's a nice trade in a vacuum, but if Wentz goes out there, takes a beating and never fully recovers because he's forced to go in before he's ready then this trade will be an underrated reason for him not evolving into what they hope he can be.
And Chase Daniel is not as good as Bradford. The difference might be negligible, say maybe a 7 win season with Bradford and 5 with Daniel, but 2 wins will make a big difference as far as when Wentz comes in.
Yep saw that too from Schefter iirc so probably trueI'm reading now that the 4th is conditional and could become a 2 or 3. If true, holy hell. That is just insane.
Can you imagine being a Vikings fan and not only looking at the possibility of losing a 1st and 2nd, but also hinging your season on Sam f'ing Bradford? This board would be in full on maintenance mode.Yep saw that too from Schefter iirc so probably true
Well they have to win SB for it to be a 2nd so...Can you imagine being a Vikings fan and not only looking at the possibility of losing a 1st and 2nd, but also hinging your season on Sam f'ing Bradford? This board would be in full on maintenance mode.
Ahh okay. What does it take for it to change to a 3?Well they have to win SB for it to be a 2nd so...
