Jim Everett On Sam Bradford

[Faceplant]

Balzer is on Sirius NFL Radio right now talking about Sam. He is adamant that Sam would be the highest rated QB if he were coming out this year. No sense in moving on from him now, right when he gets stability and a run game!!

Fisher: Bradford is our quarterback, new contract or not

Two questions facing the Rams this offseason are whether Sam Bradford is the right man to be the franchise quarterback, and whether the Rams and Bradford will agree to a new contract. Rams coach Jeff Fisher says he doesn’t know the answer to the latter question, but the answer to the former is an emphatic yes.

Fisher said on Mike and Mike in the Morning that Bradford is making good progress in recovery from the torn ACL that cut short his 2013 season, and will be the starting quarterback for the Rams when the season starts.

“Sam’s doing great with the rehab,” Fisher said. “He’s really excited. He took on a leadership role last year and he’s maintained that and he’s our quarterback, and we’ve said that.”

Fisher would not commit, however, to a new contract for Bradford, who will count $17.6 million against the Rams’ salary cap this year. Some reports have suggested that a new contract is likely, other reports have suggested that a new contract is unlikely, and Fisher says he’s not sure where any of those reports originated.

“We talk about extensions with all our players under contract. Whether or not we do so with him, I don’t know where all this came from, but Sam’s our quarterback. He’s going to be under center,” Fisher said.

Bradford was off to a good start before getting injured in 2013, but not necessarily a good enough start to make him worth more than $1 million a game, which is what he’ll cost over the remaining two years of his current contract.

i honestly don't get where all this is coming from - maybe the media has run out of crap and they're just throwin darts at the wall. First was Laconfora putting his foot into his mouth, now PFT wants to get on the pot stirring band wagon..

Demoff has said that they would do an extension and they want to - it's up to them (Bradford's camp).. love how PFT tries to play conspiracy theory with that one lol... Rams have kept saying they're committed.

nothin to see here - other than PFT fail at generating clicks

That's actually the typical response when you point out this long record of public support of Sam to those convinced he's going to be cut.

"It's all a huge smokescreen!"

The haters don't argue against that... they just go with the cliche that since a lot of lies are told during this time of year (which is true), all the support of Bradford is a lie too.

I don't believe it for a second, because I think they're smart enough to look at the history and realize that Bradford hasn't been the problem, but those who already have a pre-determined conclusion will say anything to stick by it.
