The Oklahoma Sooners’ quarterback is injured, as we know. Bradford’s shoulder just isn’t doing the job for him and so they decided that he will need to get out of this season. He will reportedly take on season-ending surgery and then work for the draft next season. This is probably, in the end, the best choice for him, because he gets to continue his life. His ability to play right now is compromised. He will probably take a hit in the draft, not going as high as he otherwise would. But what’s his choice? Play poorly for the rest of this year and take another hit in the draft, as well as face the possibility of injuring the shoulder beyond repair. In the end, he will probably be able to get back to 100% once he gets into the NFL. His potential is still high, but he’s not going to be as impressive as before.
