Rams Get Good News on Bradford with Pro Day Ahead

The Rams have received optimistic reports on Oklahoma QB Sam Bradford’s throwing shoulder, clearing the way for his likely selection with the first pick, the Denver Post reports. That’s contingent on a solid performance by Bradford at his pro day on Monday in Norman, Okla.

Bradford’s shoulder operation, performed by famed surgeon James Andrews, wasn’t nearly as serious as the surgery Andrews performed on Drew Brees’ shoulder before he signed with the Saints, the Post report said.

Rams officials traveled to Pensacola, Fla., last week to meet with Bradford at his rehab and training site.

The Rams plan more meetings with Bradford in the coming weeks, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Bradford also will be making a "top 30" visit to Rams Park on April 12. In addition, Spagnuolo strongly hinted that the Rams will have a private workout with Bradford sometime between Monday’s pro day and the first day of the draft April 22.

Bradford sprained an AC joint in the 2009 season opener and reinjured it against Texas, ending his season. Andrews repaired torn ligaments in Bradford’s shoulder in late October.

Sporting News’ Pro Football War Room lists Bradford as its No. 1 pick in the draft, going to the Rams. Bradford also is No. 1 in the War Room Super 99 ranking of draft prospects.

"Unless something is fundamentally wrong—his throwing motion has changed, if he’s not getting nearly as much zip on the ball, if there’s something that just jumps out at you and is alarming and creates concern - I don’t think his pro day will affect that opportunity to be the No. 1 pick," former Sporting News draft analyst Todd McShay tells USA Today. "It’s the (Rams’) biggest need and the most important position."

Why would you root for your teams starting QB to go down. Thats just not sensible.

I don't think he's a Rams fan. I think he's a Cornhuskers fan.

Its part of the whole irrationality that comes with being obsessed with a particular player...

I'll tell the Whiners they have a rogue confused fan over here..

Yeah, I learned my lesson last year with my obsession of Aaron Curry.

Now he is one of my least favorite players in the NFL, oh what a year does for ya :D

I wish Sam Bradford turned this franchise around.

Curry actually plays for the Seahawks, but I get what you are saying, and agree.

As for Bradford, my biggest concern with him is the shoulder, so news that he checks out with a world renowned surgeon is good news indeed. I still prefer Suh, but a healthy Bradford works for me if he's the guy the Rams want.

It's not root for so much as "regretfully expect" after the last 3 years.

I agree with you man, I will be 110% bradford if he is our guy... but good QB rookie behind no o-line = David Carr... if we had a Raven or falcon o-line.. I would be more thrilled to see him in blue and gold.. we can argue this all day and I'm not really trying to start a new debate....(again w/ suh /bradford) I will just say though that trying an already attempted approach, and expecting a different outcome is a form of insanity... Horns for life hippies

lmao so we just don't have any offensive lineman then...?

Boy oh boy I hope this line meshes this year like it should our this board will become a nihilist den...
