Hope is a wonderful thing. Also, dangerous.

Are there any other UFA QBs of note that were at least sort of successful?

bart starr, though going in the 17th round, went 200th overall (much fewer picks per round) roger staubach went at pick 129 trent green went pick 222 brad johnson went pick 227 EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE GUYS WOULD'VE BEEN DRAFTED (254 total picks in a draft) |

In 1993 (Green), there were 28 teams with an average of 8 picks per team. In 1992 (Johnson), there were 28 teams with an average 12 picks per team. Much closer to the 2013 draft in terms of picks by team. To me, that means any of the four players listed would have to be have been picked before 7.9 x n (# of teams) in their draft year in order to not be considered a UDFA in comparison to a 2013 UDFA. For simplicity, I'll just round up to 8. Starr: 8 (picks per team) x 12 (total teams) = 96 Picked at 200, he is well in to comparable UDFA range Staubach: 8 (picks per team) x 14 (total teams) = 112 Picked at 129, he is also comparable to a 2013 UDFA Green: 8 (picks per team) x 28 (total teams) = 224 Picked at 222, he just escapes being Mr. Irrelevant in 2013 Johnson: 8 (picks per team) x 28 (total teams) = 224 Picked at 227, he just misses and becomes a UDFA At least that's the way I see it. Let me know if I'm missing or overlooking something.

Kid has alot of talent.....but sorry, im not gonna get too excited about an undrafted free agent.
Hes alot closer to Croyle, Stanzi territory than to Luck and RGIII territory.

matt miller was just on 810, said teams interviewed UT coaches and players and no one liked Bray...
i'm glad we grabbed him, but the most realistic hope is that we can polish this turd and trick someone into giving us draft picks...flipping a udfa for a 3rd/2nd (even 3 years later) would be a hue coup..
