NFL: Quarterback Power Rankings
By Kit Anderson
- Sam Bradford
Sam Bradford was the most under-rated and improved player in the League last season. Even through the Vikings collapse after their quick start Bradford continued to be quietly great and could make an argument to be ranked higher on this list if more of the same is ahead.
After bouncing around between three teams Bradford seems to have found a home for now with the Vikings. It is hard to see Bridgewater coming back this season and if Bradford plays at the level he did last year a starting job should be his long term.
Two of the biggest complaints about Bradford in his past tenures was his tendency to turn the ball over and his inability to throw the ball deep down the field. That changed last season Bradford threw the ball deep as well as any other quarterback in the NFL. Not only that but Bradford limited his turnovers and looked like a franchise quarterback.
The fact alone that Bradford threw the ball deep more often successfully while also limiting turnovers should tell you the direction that he is headed in and should continue to head in this season. With another season like last year Bradford could soon have an argument as a top ten quarterback, don’t laugh just watch.
