    The Minnesota Vikings have acquired QB Sam Bradford via trade from the Philadelphia Eagles pending physical.

     

    Sam Bradford, the first-overall selection in the 2010 NFL Draft by the St. Louis Rams, has thrown for 14,790 yards, 78 TDs, 52 INTs and has a 81.0 passer rating in his 63 career games, all of which are starts.

     

    Bradford, who was acquired by Philadelphia via trade during the 2015 offseason, set Eagles franchise records in completions (346) and completion percentage (65.0%) and finished fourth in team history in passing yardage (3,725) in his lone season with the club.

     

    The former Heisman winner and 2010 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year still holds the NFL rookie completion record (354).

    More than anything, this move tells me that the team is concerned about Bridgewater. The team did not trade a 1st round and 4th round pick to do a one year roster patch. Their take is that Bridgewater won't be ready to start the 2017 season, and in fact may never play another down of regular season football again.

     

    I guess that is why Zimmer looked like he was going to cry at the press conference.

    Actually Mike, while you could be right, all it tells me is that Speilman and Zimmer aren't content to sit back and waste all of the talent on the roster right now. That, and that if Teddy needs longer than a year to be fully ready, he'll not be under pressure to rush back.

     

    Don't forget that even if it takes him two full years to come back, he'll only be 25 years old at that point. Don't write him off just yet.
