I'm assuming you want the Saints the take him...right?

How does the fact that they signed Ryan Grant to a 2 year extension come into play?

FIFY

As someone else already stated, If they thought so highly of Griffin, he wouldn't have been on the practice squad.

There's nothing wrong with taking a flier on a guy like this in the late rounds. I don't know why everyone gets so bent out of shape. If they are trying to draft contributors on the O-line in the late rounds this year then we are fricked anyway.

STRENGTHS: Tall, narrow body type with athletic footwork and long-striding speed to pick up yards with his legs. Elite-level arm strength and release quickness with the ability to add velocity and extra RPM's on his throws with ease. Not shy about testing tight windows and trusts his arm to make frozen rope throws and put the ball anywhere he wants on the field.

He has mobility to keep the play alive when the pocket breaks down, shaking off arm tackles and stepping up with his eyes downfield. Shows the ability to work through his reads and is a quick thinker to make snap decisions. Displayed outstanding toughness playing through an ankle injury most of November 2014.

WEAKNESSES: Bridge has improved field vision, but needs to develop his eye use and tends to stare down receivers, often leading defenders to his intended target. His receivers will struggle to handle his fastball at times and Bridge needs to develop a change-up and overall better touch to all levels. His mechanics and accuracy need refined, but neither needs an overhaul.

With only a dozen collegiate games under his belt, Bridge doesn't have the ideal experience and might need a season or two to develop before he's ready for consistent game reps, requiring a patient NFL team.

COMPARES TO: Colin Kaepernick, 49ers -- Bridge is tall and lean with a rocket launcher on his right shoulder like the 49ers quarterback and has more than enough velocity on his passes to toss ropes to all levels of the field.






Dude are you really fawkin serious? This guy is horrible and i mean horrible. You should be banned for life and im dead fawkin serious.

Sounds like a skinny and less talented Jamarcus Russlle.

I still think we pick Shane Carden, QB from East Carolina in the 5th round.

How he is built and looks kind of reminds me of Cam.

Is it possible he will improve, sure, but after watching Brandon play almost all of his games, as a South Alabama fan I am actually glad to see him gone. He had all the talent in the world but threw with absolutely no touch and almost every incompletion (and there were a lot of them!) were over the receiver's head.



bridge sucked hard in college.

he may be one of those qbs that suck in college but translate to NFL well, but I'm glad hes gone.



also, he will buckle and collapse if he gets hit once or twice.

Bridge has all the physical talent in the world.

His performance in college was terribly inconsistent. He was a turnover machine who at times seemed ambivalent effort wise.

Go back and check out head coach Joey Jones comments about bridge at halftime of the Camilla Bowl.

it didn't take much to rattle the kid either. Anytime he faced some pressure he got happy feet.

sometimes he could make it work with his scrambling ability but when he decided to throw it downfield after pressure its like he never set his feet and followed through on the throw.

the 2nd half of the bowl game he actually settled down and looked as good as he ever had.

I could see him playing in the CFL maybe.

he did have some nice throws this year that were just flat out dropped in some key moments so i'll cut him some slack.
