Teddy Bridgewater is a legit 6'3 and 214, now hush.


Quote:I don't see anything wrong with asking the question about why he wears a glove.  I do think it's kind of obvious though.  I think he's simply more comfortable using a glove, and that's probably at least partly due to the fact that he's got smallish hands.  Then you've got a munchkin like Manziel who has freakishly large hands for a man of his stature. 

 

Peyton Manning wears a glove on his throwing hand.  He does it because it improves his grip since all of his neck issues.  I think it's safe to assume that Bridgewater is wearing a glove for much the same reason.  It makes it easier to grip the football.  That wouldn't be a deal breaker for me, but then again, I've never been overly impressed with Teddy.  I am not sold that he's a franchise level QB.  I think he's got a lot of the tools to be successful, but there are things about him that I find questionable. 

 

Would I be disappointed if we drafted him?  Not really.  But, I wouldn't immediately declare our QB issues solved if we did.
 

Not sure why you were so pro Leftwich and now are lukewarm on Teddy. Teddy is every bit the QB that Leftwich was, but without the sloth-ness. Leftwich was always praised for his cerebral approach to the game, well, guess what if anything Teddy's even better in that dept. and he also doesn't have Leftwich's liabilities.
