Sam Bradford busted his shoulder and still went #1. And this kid is better than Bradford.

It has been about 10 seasons of fail on the field for Bradford in the NFL but Herbert is not a better player than Bradford at the same point in their careers.

I’ve never been a Bradford guy. He benefited from the OU offense.

Herbert is bigger and more athletic with same or better arm talent. I expect him to have a better NFL career if he stays healthy.

Why do u think he’s a better NFL prospect than Sam was at the time? He’s good don’t get me wrong. But sams only issue has been injury in the league. He’s not a bust cause he can’t play. Just get injured too much

It’s a mistake because 31 years ago one of our guys got hurt.

No, it’s a mistake because at any time any guy COULD suffer an injury that devastates his draft position. It’s also a mistake because that’s another year where something could happen off the field that would cost him. And, some would say, it’s a mistake for a guy like him, who is expected to go in top 10, to put out another year of tape to critique.

There’s really no debate from a business standpoint.

Fair. But at the same time, a big reason to go to college is to increase your earning potential. A vast majority of student athletes have either a slim chance or no chance at all of being a pro athlete. If a kid like Herbert has that chance (current guarantee) and if they want to go pro, might as strike while the irons hot. Get the degree later. That’s poor advice for guys on the bubble but not potential first round picks.

Mario is a good coach and he is getting into the swing of things at Oregon. Mario left UM because JJ told him he would be a fool not to go to bama to learn from Saban. Mario is a winner and will only get better.

He got fired from FIU. Apparently he can't win in the 305.

Bradford is the greatest con man who ever lived. He has made $129 million and he's never been good. Never had a winning record, never started a playoff game. Tebow only started one season and accomplished more. I salute his agent but Bradford is a JAG.

Of course there is. Herbert may not be ready for the pros. He knows himself better than anyone. If he goes out there and struggles, he loses out on the real money-- the second contract.

The evidence is overwhelming that four-year QBs do better in the league.

Disagree with Bradford never being good.

3800 yards, 71% completion, 20 TD, 5 INT is a **** good season.

No, it wasn't. Bradford averaged 7.0 yards per attempt (tied with Trevor Simien for 20th) and his team went 8-8. That's dinking and dunking.

The great Case Keenum replaced him and went 11-3 the next year. Bradford sucks.

Athletic Director Pete Garcia and Cristobal had a power struggle behind the scenes. Pretty much Garcia didn't like the fact that Cristobal was getting a ton of credit for reviving the football program. Cristobal wanted more commitment from administration as far as an improvement in facilities and marketing the program, but Garcia didn't want to do those things. Hey Pete how does your neck feel after you got choke slammed.

It’s still a good season, man.

72% is a very hard number to hit.

Brady’s never hit 70% and he’s the GOAT.

He was dinking and dunking. That's why his team struggled. They replaced him with a journeyman and immediately got way more explosive.

There is a reason Bradford has played for many different teams without one winning season or playoff start.
