Because they are going to be honest and tell him he was the cheapest option to fill the unnecessary roster spot?

You put way way way too much stock in pro scouts' opinions. Bray was signed at the age of 21 after 3 college seasons with horrid coaching. He turns 22 on Friday. He now has a fiance. There's a strong possibility that he could have matured a bit. He has an elite arm and ability to deliver a good ball with just the arm. Contrast to David Carr who some want that can't deliver a pass at all with pressure around him(see Bowl game) . If he can't step into his throw, he's done. But his footwork is better. Lol

And that even there, Brady's stock was 1) Held back by his college career/coaching, where he never was given the full-time reins to the job; 2) Still higher than Bray's, as Bray was not drafted by anyone. If maturity was Bray's only issue, he would have been drafted. It's the combination of warts that makes him such an extreme long-shot. He has a lot.

Undrafted free agent doesnt mean he has undrafted free agent talent, many had him going in the first couple of rounds in the draft. I saw mocks with him going in the first round, so obviously he has talent.

Warner: Lightning strike (not quite as big as Brady, as Brady is in the running for best ever, while Warner was merely very good-great for a little less than a decade).
Moon: Racism at play. Overall, there are FAR more successful QBs who have been first-round picks than successful QBs selected/acquired any other way. The odds still aren't great or better than 50 percent (why you have the Akili Smiths and David Klinglers and etc), but it gives you your best odds of finding a franchise guy and best odds of winning a Super Bowl. A look at the winning QBs in recent Super Bowl history (past 20 years): Flacco Eli Manning Aaron Rodgers Drew Brees (1st pick of Round 2) Roethlisberger Eli Manning Peyton Manning Roethlisberger Brady Brady Brad Johnson Brady Trent Dilfer Warner Elway Elway Favre (early second round pick, 33rd overall) Aikman Young (weird exception, in that he signed huge deal with USFL out of college. He was the first pick in the USFL expansion draft in 1985 and likely would have been in consideration for first overall in the 1984 draft). That's 5 (6 if you want to count Young) exceptions in 20 years. With two of those being early 2nd round picks. Odds slide overwhelmingly towards having a 1st round QB.

And Alex Smith was #1 overall and he's a poster boy for mediocrity.
