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!

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
