    Can Bridgewater Fall Out of Round 1?

    He did in Kiper's mock draft although Mel is still very high on him.

    "Let me be clear: This is the top-rated quarterback on my Big Board, a player I have rated higher than Bortles, Manziel or Carr," Kiper wrote. "But my reading of the tea leaves in speaking with many evaluators around the league is that Bridgewater could drop if he slides past a couple of points early on. If I could project trades, I'd have someone taking him later in Round 1 having moved up. Obviously, he's a steal at this point." The saga of Teddy B has been fascinating to watch as the process drags into its final stretch. The Cardinals' star could absolutely be a top 10 pick in May, just as everyone thought during the season. But he could also just as easily drop into the very end of Round 1, or even into the second stanza. No elite prospect has a range of draft outcomes as wide as that of Bridgewater.

    Maybe. I sure as hell wouldnt waste a pick on him.

    The NFL is about winning now. If you draft him your getting a poor mans RG3 and these coaches jobs are on the line. He is not going to help you win right away. He is a project.

    Big bear that's the dumbest comment I've read on teddy. Out of all the qbs, he's the furthest one from a project. He's the most pro ready.

    I dont at all see the comparison to rg3, even a "poor mans" version. Other than skin color, they are not alike.

    Someone is gonna get a steal if he does. Not a huge fan but I think he will a solid starter in the league.

    Bridgewater is the most talented QB out of all the supposed "big named" QBs in this draft. Cannon of an arm....accurate....mobile....already looks like Randall Cunningham and still isn't even an NFL pro. Teams would be stupid to take a guy like Bortles over him.

    Kiper also said Jimmy Clausen was a steal in the 2nd round even though the Panthers gave up a future #1 pick for him.

    Yep, Bridgewater has the highest floor out of all the QB's. In 3 years the "elite" QB's will be Rodgers, Luck and Manziel... Johnny is going to turn the NFL upside down.

    Manziel and Mettenberger should go before Bridgewater.

    Marino did poorly on the wonderlic because he was still high from his Pittsburgh days. But Bridgewater is no Marino.

    Bradshaw, Marino & Jim Kelly all scored worse than Bridgewater and are all in the NFL HOF.

    Teddy Bridgewater keeps slipping in mock drafts and there doesn't really seem to be a reason why.

    I think part of the reason and it's unspoken is the black quarterback angle

    Sure he'll be decent though but the intangibles he might not have to win

    The NFL is not college

    I guess you guys cannot comprehend what is in front of you. All of the QB's in tis years draft are slipping down. None of these guys really have played enough tough teams to be considered very good except Manziel, and he could not win the tough games. Louisville, Central Florida, Fresno State. Just who did they play? This years QB crop is very weak.

    Something told me that Russell Wilson was going to be a beast. I also feel the same way about RG3 (he will bounce back) and Manziel but not about Teddy.

    Bridgewater made Florida's D look terrible in the sugar bowl so it's clear you don't watch football

    watch the college film it's not that hard to see who will succeed and who won't Wilson was a great QB, but teams hated the fact he was 5'11 that's why he fell, and RG3 couldn't stay healthy at Baylor and it's showing up again in the NFL
