Without reading the article yet, I'll just say this:
Yes he's been grossly over paid.
However, knowing they're taking a QB and pushing you aside, I understand wanting a trade.
I hope they had planned on trading up to get Tunsil to protect him.
Send him to Cleveland. The Dawg Pound will eat him alive when he fails (again).
Sam Bradford probably has made the most money in NFL history per win. Though it's understandable Bradford is upset about what transpired regarding the Eagles trade with the Browns, if he's invested his money well, he's in great shape financially. Bradford would be far better off being a total team player with the Eagles. That by itself would increase his trade value.
I don't see how he is a crybaby. He is a good QB that just needs to find a way to stay healthy. He would fit in with the Broncos perfectly Great defense and they like to run the ball a lot. Plug Bradford in and he won't be asked to do as much on offense as Chip Kelly probably had him doing.

Sam Bradford is not a "good Qb", what have you been watching?

He threw for 3700 yards, 19TD, 14INT, and 65 percent completion. Those to me are stats of a good QB minus the INT. I don't think he would throw as many interceptions he did if he went to the Broncos, they run first.

Those numbers aren't "good", not only are the numbers bad in today's NFL but the eye test matches the production. Sam Bradford is and has been one of the least productive QB's in the NFL over the past 6 years.

Aaron Rodgers 2015:
3800 yards, 31tds, 8 ints. In a very pass happy offense.
Bradford qualifies as "good" His td numbers aren't elite, and his INTs are a bit high. But would you consider Alex Smith good? (3400 yards, 20tds, 7ints)
Bradford was out of football for a while.
He has a right to be upset. Whether he's a good QB or not. He was named the starter and then the team sells the farm for a QB. When you pick a QB that high, they are coming in to start sooner rather than later.
A bit off topic but goodness gracious the Eagles are really botching their QB situation...

Yea comparing Bradford to to Rodgers is a legitimate argument, give me a break.

The point is the guy hasn't done anything in his career to warrant being mad at the Eagles for choosing to go in a different route at the position. He's fragile, hasn't won many games, and hasn't been productive given his draft position. The only person he should be mad at is himself.

The primary reason the Eagles and Rams are in the market for a QB is because of Sam Bradford, the guy is a certified bust and has collected $100M, there's nothing to complain about Sam, haha.
Bradford is the one that signed a 2 year deal last month. That should've told him right then about what the iggles thought of him being in their plans as a long time starter.

Yea, I understand him being upset. Publicly asking for a trade one month after signing an extension-where he got 22 million guranteed-I don't quite get.
Most of this article hinges on the fact that sam shouldnt complain because he makes lots money which is p much a load of [BLEEP]
I dont know why he signed with philly, i dont know what they told him. But trading up for a qb two years in a row is a giant message that they dont believe in him. He shouldnt want to waste another year of his career with a franchise that sees him as nothing more than a placeholder, that isnt going to start drafting talent around him until his contract is up and his successor takes over.
Bradford sucks. Sucked in college too. Dont care about his numbers, he looks scared and indecisive and has a wet noodle arm.

You said his numbers weren't "good" so I compared his numbers to a known elite.
I'm in no way trying to imply they're similar players, I'm saying by the numbers, he's not a "bad" qb
