Prediction: 7-9, third in NFC West
A healthy, effective season would not only finally justify Bradford’s existence as a former No. 1 overall pick in the draft, it would also spark some genuine confidence to start the Jeff Fisher era. Nobody seems to deny Bradford has the goods to be an elite quarterback, but on a team that’s won just 15 games in the last five seasons he’ll need to elevate his game to a place that brings his teammates along for the ride.
