08:01 AM ET 05.25 | Unfortunately, for Sam Bradford, who's learning yet another offense, one carryover from last year is the residue from a badly sprained ankle. [Last season, he] missed six games and finished rehab in March, but soreness lingers. "It's getting there," he said. "It seems to feel better every week. There's less soreness, more things I can do. I think it's definitely on the right track." Bradford's willingness to absorb the offense and stay a step ahead on a still-sore leg has provided an ideal example for the Rams' rookie wide receivers learning their first pro offense. "He makes everything a lot easier for us," said Chris Givens, the Rams' fourth-round pick out of Wake Forest.

Bradford seems like a good kid. I tell you, I got a high ankle sprain this past December out jogging and I still feel it on occasion.

that happens when you don't have much of an o-line and take a beating all season.

Yup, good leader and cool under pressure. Just needs to get back to 100% health.

Peyton Manning and Tom Brady have both come back from worse injuries than this. Still, they've got to get around SF in the NFC West. Nobody is going to the playoffs with a 7-9 record this year.

All other considerations aside, yeah, I think RG3 has a lot more upside than Sam Bradford.
But, what would they do with Bradford? As you said, his salary is killing the team. They might have found a buyer, but look what happened to Matt Flynn. The Packers could have franchised him and looked for a trade, but I'm sure they talked with other teams about it and nobody was interested. They had to just let him go. It wouldn't surprise me if the Rams checked around and found they couldn't get much for Bradford. Big dollars, coming off an injury, yeah, too many question marks.
