Where are all the Bridgewater homers on this board that were claiming he was the second coming of Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning? Said it since day one, I don't think the guy is any good.

Obviously this article is true.
Theres one right there.
Bridgewater was not even the best qb in his conference. Thatch was AAC offensive player of the year and AAC first team Blake Bortles. Now, I like Teddy's accuracy and he seems like a great kid, but his armstefnth worries me. He seems ideally suited for a WC offense
If he somehow miraculously falls to 7, we better sprint to the podium.

Seriously. I'd rather have Football but if Bridgewater is there and we stay at 7, that's a no brainer pick.
Are u serious????? The only thing he has on common with leftwich is that their both black
The way he processes information and his inability to call the plays at the line. He's not a "leader type" either.And putting on weight, like a lot of people have suggested, would basically turn him into leftwich.But yeah, physically, he's more like jj, so I can see why the raised eyebrow.
dude, what. are. you. talking. about?
this is one sweet highlight videothings that stands out to me about bridgewater is#1 leadership and attitude (seen the espn thing they did on him, he plays through injuries for his team, has a great "center")#2 Impeccable timing and stands tall in pocket#3 Growth and development. Every year, more yards, more TD's, better comp %, fewer ints
If he somehow miraculously falls to 7, we better sprint to the podium.
seriously
Inability to call plays at the line? from Bedard's article on Bridgewater at SI:While other college quarterbacks are looking to the sideline for their on-field adjustments, Bridgewater does it all by himself.“I gave him the keys to the car as a sophomore,” said Watson, who has been a coach for 32 years. “I had never done that before.” http://mmqb.si.com/2014/01/02/teddy-bridgewater-2014-nfl-draft/
Pros:-Throws a very nice ball. Beautiful arc and soft touch. -Makes good decisions.-Accuracy is elite.-Has enough mobility to be a plus.-Does well at seeing it before it's there. Throws his WR open.-Plays smart and protects the ball.Cons:-Body has not developed. Very skinny and that is a concern. Can he hold up in the NFL with the beating QBs take?-Throws a beautiful ball, but does not have a strong arm. There is no fast fall in his arsenal. Often appears to "push" the ball when throwing deep. -He is a humble and intelligent kid, but he just turned 21 and there are questions as to whether he has that confidence and mental toughness to grab an NFL team and lead it. -Hasn't really shown the ability to deal with pressure and preform late in games. I believe there are plenty of teams that don't think he is worthy of the #1 pick. I'm sure there are some that think he isn't a top 10 pick. I highly doubt there is a single team that thinks he isn't a 1st round pick. This is mostly a smokescreen imo. Ideally Bridgewater would get to sit and develop for a year, both mentally and physically.....but we all know that ain't happening.

good assessment.
This is also the time of year when NFL teams lie to hide their true drafting intent
Jeremiah:.... Multiple NFL Teams Don’t Think Louisville QB Teddy Bridgewater is a First Round Talent Whether it’s due to his lack of ideal height and weight or his questionable competition at Louisville, there are NFL franchises who believe Bridgewater isn’t a sure-fire prospect. If the concerns are about Bridgewater’s size, those same teams likely would pass on Johnny Manziel as well, meaning Blake Bortles and Derek Carr would be the two top quarterbacks according to those teams.
How is questionable competition a knock against Bridgewater and thus a reason to take Bortles or Carr. I am so confu-sed
Where are all the Bridgewater homers on this board that were claiming he was the second coming of Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning?
Has anyone ever come close to saying that about Teddy B here? My guess would be no. Sounds like a strawman to me.
Let the Smokescreen season begin . Those "multiple teams" are hoping to to get him to fall.
Absolutely.
