Last week the Philadelphia Eagles traded with the Cleveland Browns to acquire the No. 2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL draft. The Eagles are expected to draft a quarterback and that angered their current QB Sam Bradford so much so that he is now demanding a trade and will not show up for their offseason program.

Bradford, who re-signed with the Eagles earlier this offseason, “is mad and wants to show everyone who’s best,” a source told Schefter last week.
The Eagles made the trade despite signing Sam Bradford and former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chase Daniel this offseason, doling out $34 million in guaranteed money to the quarterbacks ($22 million to Bradford on a two-year deal and $12 million to Daniel on a three-year contract).
Bradford, 28, started 14 games last season after the Eagles acquired him in an offseason trade with the Rams. The Eagles went 7-7 in his starts. He completed 65 percent of his pass attempts, throwing for 3,725 yards with 19 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.
