From Rotoworld: Adam Schefter says he is "willing to take all bets" that the Rams draft Sam Bradford #1 overall. Schefter is right a lot so i believe him.

woah

That'd be interesting to say the least.

If they do that, they have the upmost confidence (that a lot of people are having) that Bradford's past injuries will have no effect on his NFL potential. Take away the injury concerns and he probably would be a #1 pick.

If this happens, the Detroit Lions may be dancing in the streets.

I'm not sold on Bradford at all.

Clausen measuer in at 6'2 and 222 today.

I'm not sold on Bradford at all.

You're not the only one. The only QB I'm sold on in this entire draft is a project and he is Dan LeFevour.

Clausen IMO is a mid to late 1st round talent. I'd but McCoy and LeFevour in the late 1st to early 2nd range. Bradford as a 2nd rounder and then Tebow in the 4th-5th Round.

Compelling argument....

Let's hear more.

Not sure why it's so LOL worthy when Bradford played in a spread offense and is coming off a pretty severe injury/surgery to his throwing shoulder. Watching Bradford there really wasn't a lot about his game to me that translated really well to the next level, but then again it's tougher to tell with him playing in the spread.

Clausen is no way worthy of a Top 5 pick like some have been saying but I think he'd be worth it around pick 13 or later.

[NAHSTE]

Falcons will pick 19th, won the toss vs. Houston.

Thomas Dimitroff makes his own luck control+ATL+delete

[Leftwich]

In case you were wondering this is the weakest QB class since the 2007 draft. The best QB out of that class is arguably Matt Moore or Kevin Kolb... the verdict is still out on all of them especially Brady Quinn who is *gasp* another ND QB from the Charlie Weis system. lol all you want.

Yeah, I'm not saying Bradford sucks. But honestly some of it is based on a "gut feel" about Bradford. He has somepretty good physical tools but IMO Clausen has the better arm, better release, better handle on a pro offense etc.

Bradford is very accurate but I'm not sure he has the arm for the NFL and the transition from the spread will give him trouble IMO...which could effect his accuracy.

Clausen has more upside IMO, especially if he keeps his head on straight.

Whenever I watched/watch Bradford I never really was amazed by his talent/performances. Oklahoma beat the piss out of teams on offense and you'd look down and Bradford would have real big numbers but I never really came away impressed by many of his throws etc.

Also Leftwich, people forget too that this is the same system that created Jason White and propelled him to a Heisman so Bradford has some "system QB" questions to answer himself.

Not a strong year for QB's no matter what but IMO Clausen is the strongest, but not by much.

I think Colt McCoy will be late 3rd-5th round.

Like Brady Quinn, it's pretty much assumed that we've seen the best Clausen has to offer. The other guys seem to have more potential as a pro.

Quinn was fortunate to get picked in the 1st round if you ask me.

Not sure who is assuming that. It's obvious many feel Clausen has some big upside at the NFL level if some see him as a top 5 pick. Same with Bradford.

Then again some could feel that if Clausen growns mentally and stays where he is at physically that he is good enough to be the best QB in this draft class. Maybe some have Clausen graded out higher now than what some people feel bradford etc could become. I'm not saying that's the case or that I feel that just pointing it out.

Really this is such a down year for QB's it's sad. Especially with the Bradford/McCoy injuries and the Tebow LULZ throwing motion.

[FirstTimer]

My point is to first say Clausen is a mid 1st round pick, and then follow that up with Bradford being a 2nd rounder, BEHIND McCoy and LeFevour, is laughable. Your ND homerism is just showing on that one.

My ND homerism is showing by having Bradford behind a QB from Texas and Central Michigan?

Stupid argument on your part.

I listed a bunch of reasons I think Clausen is the better pick in general. None of them had anything to do with him being the QB at Notre Dame.

Even if Clausen doesn't exist in this draft I still have Bradford ranked behind those two guys. It's not as if Clausen being in the draft makes me think Bradford is worse than he is.

Draft with Clausen:

Clausen
McCoy
LeFevour
Bradford

Draft with no Clausen:

McCoy
Lefevour
Bradford

What the hell does me liking Notre Dame have to do with any of that?

Last I checked Leftwich isn't an ND fan and agreed with me on Bradford.

Either post something decently intelligent in rebuttle or STFU with you "homerism" cop out BS.
