Sam Bradford insists he is unconcerned about speculation the Philadelphia Eagles are attempting to trade up in the draft to select a quarterback. According to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com, the Eagles were engaged in negotiations with Tennessee to trade for the number one pick before the Titans reached a deal with the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams are expected to pick one of the two top quarterbacks in the draft, Jared Goff or Carson Wentz, but NFL.coms Jeff Darlington reports the Cleveland Browns are actively shopping the number two pick. Is former California QB Jared Goff coveted by the Eagles? That would mean one of the two would be available for Philadelphia if they could strike a deal with Cleveland.However, although, the two quarterbacks are closely rated by many draft analysts, there is no guarantee both are coveted by the Eagles and they may prefer to see which one is available before pulling the trigger on any move up.The Eagles apparent aggressive pursuit of a franchise quarterback is unexpected given their moves in the off-season.Philadelphia signed Bradford a two-year, $36m (£25m) deal on March 1 and then followed that up a week later by signing former Chiefs back-up Chase Daniel to a three-year, $21m (£14.6m) deal a week later.The money shelled out indicated the team viewed Bradford as their starting quarterback and Daniel as a back-up.Despite the rumoured interest in drafting another quarterback high, Bradford is confident the team still has faith in him.All the conversations I had before free agency, after the season with (executive vice president) Howie (Roseman) and the people in this building - I feel very good about their thoughts on me and my situation here, he said.This is not the first time Bradford has found himself in an uncertain situation in the NFL. Sam Bradford #7 talks to former head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles Chip Kelly When he joined the Eagles in a trade from the Rams last season, there was speculation then head coach Chip Kelly was willing to use him as a trade asset to move up to pick No 2 overall to draft Marcus Mariota.Prior to that, when the Rams traded the No 2 overall draft pick to the Washington Redskins in 2012, there was debate about whether Bradford should be the one who was dealt.The 28-year-old says he learned a long ago to focus on what he can control and ignore everything else.I learned a long time ago to stay away from all that stuff, Bradford said. Its not the first time Ive gone through that situation like this. Im not going to worry about anything I cant control.Its one of those things, regardless of what the situation is, I learned a long time ago, whats said outside this building really has no bearing on what actually happens here.

For the Bombers it has been a combination of things coming together at the most inappropriate moments in time. Quarterback, injuries, Canadian talent or depth and leadership are all issues. Trust me when I say being a Bomber is no fun right now in a city that embraces football the way Winnipeg does.

Woods was 5-over par for the final round -- 12 shots behind Rory McIlroy at the time -- when he shook hands with Luke Guthrie on the 13th green and told him he was done. It was the farthest point at PGA National, and the tournament sent a van to collect Woods and his family. Police kept the media from the parking lot. "He just came over and said, I cant go anymore. It was a pleasure playing with you," said Luke Guthrie, paired with Woods the last two days. "I just said, Take it easy. Feel better. Pretty uneventful." But the speculation over his future figures to be a big buzz leading to the Masters next month. Woods said through spokesman Glenn Greenspan it was a lower back problem that had started Sunday morning as he was warming up. He was to defend his title next week in the Cadillac Championship. "Too early to tell," Woods said in a statement about playing next week at Doral. "Ill get treatment every day to try to calm it down. Just dont know yet. Wait until Thursday and see how it feels." Woods already has played a limited schedule this year -- 10 complete rounds. He was to play twice more before the Masters on April 10-13. Woods said the spasms were similar to what he felt last August at The Barclays, where he dropped to his knees after hitting one shot. Woods finished that tournament in a tie for second, one shot behind Adam Scott. It was the second time in two years that Woods has walked off the course in the middle of the final round. He quit after 11 holes at Doral when he was well out of contention -- and then won Bay Hill two weeks later for his first PGA Tour title since his return from the chaos in his personal life. Guthrie said he could tell early on in the round that something was not right with Woods. "He made a couple of uncharacteristic shots -- the first on 3 kind of was the first one," Guthrie said. "I didnt know if he wasnt feeling the greatest, and it kind of seemed like he might have been protecting -- came up and out of it. I didnt think much of it until maybe 11. I noticed he was bending down gingerly. "He didnt mention it to me," Guthrie said. "Obviously, he wasnt playing the ggreatest.dddddddddddd I wasnt playing the greatest. He was battling out there. Its not like he was throwing in the towel. He was still trying." Woods started the final round seven shots out of the lead and was out of the tournament quickly. He muffed a tough chip in the rough on No. 2, and then took double bogey on the easy par-5 third hole with a drive that found the water hazard left of the sixth green. He bogeyed the fourth from behind the green, and then put his tee shot into the water on No. 6 and had to scramble to save bogey. Woods had said earlier this year in Dubai that he spent the majority of his off-season working on his physical strength, at the expense of neglecting his game. He opened the year by missing the 54-hole cut at Torrey Pines (where he is an eight-time winner), and then tying for 41st in the Dubai Desert Classic. The Honda Classic was his first tournament in a month, and he didnt make it to the finish line. "If youre hurting, youre hurting," Guthrie said. "You dont need to risk injuring yourself even more. Hes had his share of problems with injuries. Theres no reason for him to chance it if hes really hurting." This was the fourth time Woods has withdrawn from a tournament since returning from the chaos in his personal life at the end of 2009. He withdrew from The Players Championship in consecutive years, once in the final round because of a bulging disk, and then after nine holes in 2011 with a leg injury. He left in the final round at Doral in 2012 because of tightness in his Achilles tendon. Two years ago at Doral, Woods was driven in a cart to the parking lot, and NBC Sports showed footage of his Mercedes-Benz driving out of the Miami resort toward his home about an hour north in Jupiter. This time, police blocked the media from entering the players parking lot. Woods was seen getting out of a white passenger van with his mother and other members of his group. It was the second time the No. 1 player in the world walked out in the middle of the Honda Classic. A year ago, McIlroy quit after 26 holes because of what he said was a sore wisdom tooth. He later said the frustration of a poor start to the year got the best of him. By withdrawing in the middle of the round, Woods is ineligible to win the Vardon Trophy for lowest scoring average for having an incomplete round. Woods has won the award a record nine times. ' ' '
