Not a great comparison.  Wasn't Bradford a #1 overall QB? Totally different from a LB selected in the late first 

yes but he was the last 1st overall pick on the old CBA where the first overall pick ended up with more money than half the team. He did what he did with the rams and then the same thing to multiple other teams lol.

Who cares where he was drafted? Mayfield was #1 overall. Hell, so was Jamarcus Russell. Teams weren't lining up to throw massive amounts of money at those guys because they were once #1 overall picks. Bradford was mediocre when he was on the field and stayed injured and teams STILL paid him over and over again. It never made any sense and still doesn't. Bradford probably made more in relation to the cap at the time while doing less than possibly anyone in NFL history.

You're right, Bradford wasn't even mediocre through most of his career.

At least Shaq has been above average at times.

All joking aside, Sam Bradford is the 24th highest earning NFL player of all time. He made more money in 9 years than Tony Romo did in 14 and Mike Vick did in 13.

Bradford is the definition of overpaid for mediocre results.

 

Yeah but a lot of that was from being the last QB to get that old rookie QB money under the old CBA.

It’s amazing how much money Bradford made for being constantly injured!! Good on him but damn he raped a lot of teams!

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
