Lol Mort, is that news or the transcript from the Bradford press conference two months ago?

No trade clause? Is this his agents ditch effort to keep him from being dealt to Cleveland? Does he really has any leverage here? Maybe Sam should have been more willing to negotiate earlier if he didn't wanna be dealt somewhere crappy. He just comes off as a bit of an ass.

I'd like to see Kelly do it just for the laughs.

So he tells us the why the Eagles acquired Bradford, then backs it up by telling us what Bradford wants :confused:.

Last year he swore that the Rams loved Manziel and were going to draft him. Don't believe any reports from any source this time of year.

Sure, Mort -- if you say so.

Oh wait.....


Report: Browns think they can get Sam Bradford today


You can almost see things coming together, with more intrigue about the about landing spots of several quarterbacks tonight.

With the Eagles lacking sufficient trade chips to get to the second pick in the 2015 NFL Draft and Marcus Mariota, it appears they’re working on the process.

Peter King of Sports Illustrated said a source told him the Browns think they have a good chance before the draft starts to acquire Eagles-for-a-minute quarterback Sam Bradford.

That would line up with the potential three-way deal we’ve been talking about here for a week, checking off a lot of the boxes that the Titans, Browns and Eagles would need.

Presumably, the Eagles would get one of the Browns’ first-rounders in any exchange for Bradford, to put with their own 20th pick (though there would likely be other moving parts in that deal).

Coupled with the fact the Eagles may be trying to move some spare parts, it sure appears they’re open for business, which will make today a fascinating one as Kelly works to put his stamp on the team.

And while Bradford’s coming off a pair of ACL tears, he’d be the most legitimate starting quarterback the Browns have had in ages, and certainly a better use of a swapped first-rounder than Brandon Weeden or Johnny Manziel.
