You guys are essentially saying that a QB, that was passed on in the draft, and you HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN PLAY YET is so talented that there is no way teams would pass on him if the QB needy Chiefs cut him.
You'd think by how you guys are talking about Bray is that he is like the next coming of John Elway, when he is probably closer to Ryan Leaf or JaMarcus Russell.
This fan base deserves to be duped every year because they are a whole lot of stupid if they have that high of an opinion of Bray before anyone sees him take one professional snap. What happened to the Show Me State?

Holy Christ. We agree, your logic makes sense.
What you fail to understand, is that it happens EVERY. SINGLE. YEAR. WITH. WORSE. PLAYERS. THAN. BRAY.
If we cut him, he will be picked up by another team before making it to our practice squad. Not saying its logical, not saying it is right, just saying that it would happen, or at least saying that there is a high potential for it to happen.
And you are 100% convinced that it wouldn't. Just look at:
Jeff Saturday:
Quote:
Center Jeff Saturday is best-known for his time with the Indianapolis Colts, but he was actually brought into the league by the Baltimore Ravens, who picked up the undrafted player in 1998.
They cut him before the season started, though, and he then wound up being signed by the Colts in 1999, where he began starting at left guard in November of that same year. He then moved to the starting center position in 2000.
Saturday was part of a Colts offensive line that gave up the fewest sacks in the league in 2004, 2005 and 2006. He is a six-time Pro Bowler, a two-time first-team All-Pro, and boasts a Super Bowl victory.
After 12 seasons with the Colts, Saturday played for the Green Bay Packers in 2012 before retiring from the game. He's appeared in 211 total games with 202 career starts.

Rod Smith:
Quote:
Missouri Southern wide receiver Rod Smith was originally signed by the New England Patriots as an undrafted rookie free agent in 1994, but he was quickly released and then picked up by the Denver Broncos, where he played out a stellar, 10-season career.
Smith started 158 games for the Broncos, catching 849 passes for 11,389 yards and 68 touchdowns over the course of his career—all of which are NFL records for undrafted players as well as being Denver Broncos franchise records.
For his efforts, Smith reached the Pro Bowl three times (2000, 2001 and 2005), was an All-Pro twice (2000 and 2001) and has two Super Bowl rings to his name.

Willie Brown:
Quote:
Cornerback Willie Brown was initially picked up as an undrafted free agent by the Houston Oilers in 1963, but he was cut during training camp and was then signed by the then-AFL Denver Broncos later that year. He became a starter during his rookie year, and in his second season there, he notched nine interceptions, earning him a spot in the AFL's All-Star Game.
In 1967, Brown was traded to the Oakland Raiders, where he played out the rest of his career, eventually retiring after the 1978 season. He has a career total of 54 interceptions for 472 yards and two touchdowns. He appeared in five AFC All-Star Games and four Pro Bowls, and he returned an interception for a 75-yard touchdown in Super Bowl XI, which the Raiders won.
Brown was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1984.
