2015-16 Stats: 3,725 passing yards/19 touchdowns/14 interceptions

Projected 2016-17 Stats: 3,900 passing yards/24 touchdowns/12 interceptions

There is a real chance Bradford has his best season in 2016 with a healthy offensive line, an offense more suited to his skill set and the ability to change plays at the line of scrimmage. Through 14 games last season Bradford threw for 3,725 yards, 19 touchdowns, 14 interceptions.

Providing Bradford can stay on the field for 16 games, expect him to eclipse all those numbers this year.

Passing for over 4,000 yards could be a stretch given his history with injury. He may miss a game or two this season. 24 touchdowns is a safe bet for this team in the passing game, as the Eagles don’t have an Antonio Brown or Julio Jones. Exceeding 24-25 touchdowns will be extremely tough to do.

Having control at the line of scrimmage should help Bradford maneuver his way out of bad plays which will lessen turnovers.
