Hi, this past weekend a lot of insane news has happened and I'm here to tell you all about everything. Sorry if this post gets long it's just there is a LOT of crazy news! Here it is:
Sam Bradford: Ever since the Eagles traded up to the 2nd pick in the draft and selected QB Carson Wentz, Sam Bradford has wanted out of philly, this weekend he got his wish. When Vikings QB Teddy Bridgewater tore his ACL and was ruled out for the season, the Vikings raced to find a QB. Then they found Sam Bradford. After giving Philly a first round pick and more, Sam Bradford was sent over to Minnesota. Even though Bradford has been a bust his entire NFL career, he could have a career year with the Vikings because their offense is much better than any other he's played with before. With Laquon Treadwell and Stefon Diggs two young emerging receivers, Bradford could be pretty good also with the help of a great o line and Adrian Peterson.
Carson Wentz: Wentz wasn't supposed to start until next year, but then the Bradford deal happened and everything changed quickly. The Eagles were left with super high payed backup QB Chase Daniel and rookie no. 2 overall pick Carson Wentz. Daniel was in line to start but after the weekend, the Eagles staff decided Wentz would get th start. I think Wentz will probably be decent to kind of bad this year because it's his first season of super intense playing. In college he played D-2 so he doesn't really know yet. This will be an interesting thing to see how the no. 2 overall pick from D-2 plays after playing Only 1 pre-season game this year.
Blaine Gabbert: The 49ers have named their starting QB and it's going to be Blaine Gabbert. Gabbert has played okay when he was the starter last year and in the pre-season but nothing to wow anyone. Competition Colin Kaepernick deserved the role. He is still super young and he had one down, injury season and now the team revolves around some crappy guy named Blaine Gabbert, don't forget that Kaepernick took the 49ers to the Super bowl and to an NFC championship game. Don't forget it, Gabbert won't do anything for the Niners and they will probably have another down year.
Other News: Steelers linebacker Bud Dupree is out for the season and put on injured reserve. EX-Titans running back Bishop Sankey goes to the Patriots, Packers pro bowl o lineman Josh Sitton goes to the Bears, Beara cut their franchises leading scorer kicker Rohbie Gould and sign Connor Barth, Vikings cut promising young receiver Morirz Boehringer, Dolphins sign WR Justin Hunter, No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff in line to be 3rd string QB, Cowboys sign Mark Sanchez, Texans cut good receiver Cecil Shorts

Picking a Winner out of Positional Battles
Hi, since their are still some battles going on for the starting job for teams, I am picking some winners. Here it is:
Broncos Starting QB: Paxton Lynch Vs. Trevor Siemian Vs. Mark Sanchez:
I think the Broncos are going to name Trevor Siemian as the starter. Out of the 3 of them, he is the only one to have been on the Broncos last year which means he has more experience with the team and its playing style. Siemian has looked decent in the pre-season and also from being on the team last year, he has trained a lot with Peyton Manning, one of the best QB's in NFL history. I would say Paxton Lynch has played the best and deserves the starting role but the Broncos don't want to start him until later in the season, probably to train him a little because its a big transition from college to the pros. Trevor Siemian will get the job.
49ers Starting QB: Colin Kaepernick Vs. Blaine Gabbert:
I'm giving this one to Kaepernick, he has so much experience with the team, he lead them to the NFC championship a few years ago, just because he had one down year doesn't mean the 49ers should be giving crappy Blaine Gabbert the job. Kaepernick is also so much better, he can pass well, he's a great runner, he deserves the job and will get it. Just because he had surgeries and hasn't played as much lately doesn't set him back. Kaepernick will get the job that he deserves.
Rams Starting QB: Jared Goff Vs. Case Keenum:
I'm giving the win to Goff. Even though I think it was stupid for the Rams to give up so much to trade up to the first pick, Goff will still get the job. Case Keenum had a chance to lock the starting gig down last year and blew it with just one good game against like the Buccaneers. Goff has looked terrible in these first pre-season games but I think he needs to start. He gives the Rams a new chance to win and I think they will keep him at the job. The Rams should have just waited a season and waited until the QB stacked 2017 draft which holds 10 QB's who are projected to go in the first round, they would have still got someone good and they wouldn't have had to trade. Goff will still get the job but I'm not saying he'll be good.
Seahawks Starting RB: Christine Michael Vs. Thomas Rawls:
Rawls was supposed to be the hands down starter until Michael stepped in this pre-season and started playing well. Rawls ended the season with an injury and hasn't played since, even though he is supposed to be ready for week 1. Rawls won't play in the pre-season and Michael has been and he has been playing well, people are questioning if Rawls will get the job back and I'm saying he will. Michael is good, but Rawls is better. These are pre-season games, they don't matter, the top defenses are out and no one is totally trying. Rawls is the starter and will get a shot at the start of the season but if he plays badly, Michael might have a chance to steal the starting job. I think Michael will be able to get some carries out of Rawls' workload if Rawls starts himself.
Thanks for reading and make sure to watch some pre-season games today, especially the Rams vs Broncos which will feature two of the starting job battles, Broncos QB and Rams QB. It will be a great game.
