Mel Kiper’s latest mock draft has the team taking QB Sam Bradford in the first round. Blogger Mike Sando from ESPN shares his thoughts on that pick should it happen:
Mel’s pick: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
My thoughts: If Bradford is good enough to go sixth overall, the Rams should take him at No. 1. A good quarterback beats a very good defensive tackle. The Seahawks are in better position to take a chance on a quarterback early because they have another pick in the first half of the round. The second pick provides some insurance. Matt Hasselbeck’s recent injury history should force the Seahawks to address this issue in the near term. Bradford could spend a season or at least part of a season on the bench, depending upon his health, Hasselbeck’s health and Hasselbeck’s production.
