This year's Aaron Rodgers?

Oh I think it's possible. Anything is possible on draft day. Bridgewater's fate I think hangs in the balance of his personal workouts. Combine, pro day, workouts -- 3 strikes and you're out. I still think Manziel is a big wilcard in the draft. A lot of teams are gonna like him, but a lot of teams are also going to label as a gambler at heart, at not one you can easily coach into playing with their structured offence.

Bottom line is this. If Manziel is able to walk into a franchise with pieces in place, he will be successful. If he walks into a place like Oaklans and goes 4-12, he will be labeled a busy by week 7. He is so polarizing to people that he will be loved if his team succeeds but will be completely torn apart if not, no matter how he plays.

I really feel for him because I expect him to be shredded by the media and all of those who make "predictions". You either are successful or your not. People think they are like Nostradamus when they say one way or the other when in reality, the situation is much different.

Ill have the utmost respect for him if he can weather the media shitstorm of a 3-6 start to the season.

He is going to fall out of the top 10 no doubt about it....he could fall out of the 1st round easily...none of these QBs are worthy of a top 10 selection IMO and I'd hate to be in this position if we had no QB and drafted in the top 3....

 

I would get Clowney or Watkins and grab a QB who has just as much upside with the 33-36th pick...there are also some 3rd-4th round prospects who have every bit the talent these first rounders have....come back in 10 years and I wouldn't be surprised if the later round QBs from this draft far outperformed the 1st rounders.

And if he falls all the way to 28, given Newton's contract situation, how probable would it be to see the Panthers taking him?

 

The chance of falling to 28 is 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%.

 

And if he falls to 28, the chance to take him is 0%.

I'd likely agree on both.

 

Though to be fair, if you'd have said prior to his draft that Aaron Rodgers was going to drop to 24, people would have laughed.

Bridgewater's agent responds to the story (PFT)

 

28th is a pretty far drop.  i dont see him getting past all those teams with aging qbs or slightly aging qbs with question marks.  could be insurance.  smokescreens in this situation seem perfect.      

 

did you read that first pft comment?  zing!!

Patriots will take him 1000000000000000% if he falls there

this is what i'm thinking. brady is getting up there in years. smart thing would be to start grooming his replacement now.

when i think of an aaron rodgers/bret favre situation, i think of a team with a successful QB who has been there for over a decade and who the team wants to make sure can be replaced easily by a top prospect QB without missing a beat and who knows what they do. chances are that if bridgewatee were to fall, the pats might not have another chance to get a QB of that caliber without having a big implosion (which i'm sure they want to avoid).
