Bradford is not ready, and should go back for another year IMO.

Another year may help Bradford skillwise and physically, but he loses 4/5 of maybe the best OL in the country. It is going to be hard to duplicate this year's success under those circumstances. He may be at his peak value wise right now.

Bradford (and Tebow for that matter) are in the same boat that Vince Young was after the 2005 season. They could really benefit skills-wise from another year at college but they've pretty much accomplished everything they can at this level so their pro prospects can only go down from here. Probably should cash in while the getting is good. Remember Matt Leinart. He's a consensus Top 3 pick after 2004 but lasted until the 10th pick after staying in school an extra year.

thank you bob. Exactly what I meant to say but far better said.

It is a two-edged sword. If they get enough money, then they can get the football education they need by being a sub for a year, but unfortunately it doesn't work that way often enough to work. Usually they are forced into the Pro limelight immediately. Too bad.
