I'm not saying that better times aren't in the future for Sam Bradford. He does a lot of "NFL things" really well already. But Bradford, at his best, has a long way to go to even be competent. He's going to need a lot of help really fast. Which is something that the Rams (and to be fair, the Redskins) vastly underestimated on draft day.

If i had to rate your +14,000 posts, I'd say this is your lowest moment.

lol, Just kiddin GTripp!!

As judged by talent scouts? Perhaps you're right. As judged by statistics, division titles, playoff wins, comeback victories? Not so much.

Look, I thought Bradford would be a solid starter coming out of OU. I thought Russell would be a bust coming out of LSU. Was I right on Russell? Probably. Was I right on Bradford? It's not looking good, but there's still a shot that I was. Point is, I have no reason to root against Sam Bradford, but when in two seasons, the only two names who have performed worse than you are a rookie Jimmy Clausen and a rookie Blaine Gabbert, and a horrible Curtis Painter, well, that's definitely not worth ignoring, right?

Duly noted. We will all reflect on this moment in five years as a low point in Warpath history.

I know he was.

LOL!! But my posts on the other hand bring nothing but pure non biased journalism to the table of top notch caliber, inwhich everyone agrees on.

“Life coach” fires JaMarcus Russell | ProFootballTalk

Nothing about JaMarcus Russell's character should be obvious to us. The very end of his NFL career was a total train wreck. A very rare train wreck, I might add. A lot of people wrote a lot of terrible things about him and then there was the whole citation for codeine that made him untouchable.

I do think it's fair to criticize his work habits. I don't think it's fair to cite his desire or character as a defense for Sam Bradford.

It's still too soon to say whether or not the 2010 draft class is great or terrible. Clausen is the only QB from that draft class that's seemingly a bust. Sam Bradford, Tim Tebow, and Colt McCoy all possess the potential to be great. All they need around them is play makers.

I cannot believe that everyone here has missed the hidden gems of the 2010 QB class. Two QBs were taken in the fifth round:

1. John Skelton - - now starting for the Arizona "Bleeping" Cardinals - - and - -

2. Jonathon Crompton.

And you folks believe this draft class might be "historically awful"?

They have to outdo 2007's QB class first.
