Crack pipe down please. ESPN magazine down.
1) 90% of successful NFL QB's come from Universities that are not football powerhouse schools. Oklahoma was so dominant he rarely saw pressure and always had superior talent. 2) He has never played in a pro style system, under center. He was not required to read defenses and most the time only had 1 read. 3) Matt Ryan was the best and most pro ready prospect since Peyton Manning. How can you say a QB who didn't play a full 4 years, never played in a pro style system, and only was required to make one read, pro ready? 4) He didn't read defenses and took the plays from the sideline...and NEVER changed them based on what he was seeing. When you see pre snap film of him he isn't focused on the defense, how they are moving/lining up, he is looking at the sideline.
He is going to end up like David Carr. Beat up from getting sacked so many times, and he seem brittle so I would guess he will more than likely be injured a lot. This will keep the Rams at the lower end of the league for years to come and eventually you won't like them because more than likely you are just a front runner who jumped on their bandwagon when they won the superbowl.

Didnt see pressure? Did you see how crappy our OLine was last season? They practically let BYU run a train over Bradford until he get destroyed!!! We all saw it coming but it was a sad day in Oklahoma (not much else to look forward to here)

Sam Bradford – 6'4” 236 1st round, 1st overall Ability: Sam Bradford was not the best player available in the 2010 NFL Draft, but contrary to some criticism leveled against the St. Louis Rams, he was worthy of the first overall selection. Although Ndamukong Suh is a once in a generation talent at defensive tackle, Bradford himself may be the best quarterback prospect to enter the draft since Peyton Manning. The breadth of Sam's skill set was obscured to a degree by missing most of the season with a shoulder injury, but as a sophomore he demonstrated practically every attribute a team could want behind center. His accuracy and touch jumped out immediately, as Bradford routinely hit his receivers in stride even twenty or thirty yards downfield. Equally important, Sam showed the ability to quickly read and assess coverages, then find the best option. In a spread offense, sometimes the quarterback simply follows his assigned progressions, yet watching him perform, it was clear that Bradford didn't simply follow a script but instead made snap decisions about where to go with the football. The only legitimate concerns about his pro potential dealt with his physical maturity, as some worried that Bradford possessed only average arm strength, and that his slim frame would not hold up to the inevitable pounding an NFL quarterback has to endure. Oddly, Sam's injury likely helped him a great deal in these respects, as he was able to bulk up considerably without harming his technique or accuracy. By proving that he can not only make the throws required of a pro passer, but do so with strength and efficiency, Bradford removed the last lingering doubt about his worthiness of being the first pick in the draft.
