A Long Year for Sam Bradford?

There is no doubt that Sam Bradford has the tools to be an NFL quarterback.  And I believe that he will end up being the starting quarterback no later than his second year in the league.  Will he start this year and how will he do if does?My best guess is that he will probably end up starting this year.  But it will be  tough go this year if he does.  There are some other big projects besides a rookie quarterback for the Rams.

First, the offensive line has huge problems to be fixed.  And there really isn’t a playmaker receiver on the squad.  So beyond Steven Jackson, Bradford, if he starts, will be missing a supporting cast to be a winning quarterback in year one.  And he is liable to set an NFL record for number of times sacked if he starts all year.




He did  show in the first preseason game that he has strengthened his upper body and the surgically repaired shoulder when he took a hit and landed on the shoulder.  He got up with no apparent problems, letting the Rams breathe a sigh of relief.

So, if he does end up starting, it will be a long year for the Number one pick.  If he stays healthy through it though, he should have the chance to really take of in years 2 and 3 if the football team builds around him.

Good luck Sam.
