Teddy Bridgewater – QB – New Orleans Saints

It has been awhile since we have seen much of Teddy Bridgewater.

After his devastating knee injury in Minnesota, it has been a long road to recovery for the former first round pick. Bridgewater may get a shot at a starting gig, but he will likely not receive a massive contract if he hits free agency.

We haven’t seen him for more than one game since 2015. Bridgewater was also very raw before the injury so it will be very hard for teams to know what they are getting.

Despite the uncertainty, with more teams needing quarterbacks than what the draft offers, his services will still be wanted somewhere. An elite college quarterback, Bridgewater still offers a lot of upside that, under the right coaching, could be unleashed at the NFL level. Bridgewater can still be a starter in this league, and given the right situation, we could see him back as a starter during 2019.

Potential Landing Spots: NYG, JAX, MIA, WAS, CIN
