Any opinions on how high he would be drafted?

Obviously being a season ticket holder, I have seen everything the kid has done on the field. SB has done some great things over the couple of years, but I'm still having problems with the throwing motion. His arm strength has improved dramatically from last year, doesn't look as awkward when flushed from the pocket, and he continues to make big plays.

Bradford deserves to be the first QB drafted, IMHO. I would not hesitate to pull the trigger anywhere between 10-20 were I a team in that range in need of a franchise QB with a steady vet on the roster who could give me a year or two first.

I'd personally take him over Stafford because, even though Stafford has superior tools, Bradford has a superior QB makeup.

There are a few QBs I personally would take before Bradford or Stafford, but I think Bradford might have more upside, a higher ceiling. Also watch out for Missouri's Chase Patton to be the next Matt Cassel. 2-4 Senior signal-callers from this much maligned class will be better than expected: Brock Smith could be a very pleasant surprise as UDFA, Brian Johnson might be the best dual-threat QB nobody seems to discuss, David Johnson might be Chad Pennington with a slightly stronger arm, Willie Tuitama is better than most seem to think, this class is not great but is not without some bargains to be had. wink.gif
