Why not ? He has loads of potential great risk to reward. Bring him in let him duke it out for backup duty. good chance he can learn under Brees.

"Everyone is looking to see which quarterback outside of the big two can emerge as a potential starter at the next level. This is a motley crew of throwers with flaws all over their games. That’s why it was nice to see South Alabama quarterback Brandon Bridge put together a solid workout at the combine.

Bridge definitely passes the eyeball test at 6’4” and 229 pounds. However, it was the zippy arm and nice accuracy that he showed in Indianapolis that will help his case. Bridge also looked like he had improved his throwing mechanics since the end of the season and was doing a better job coming over the top on his throws.

Bridge’s career has been a mixed bag of great plays and terrible ones. Any team that takes a shot on him is banking on being able to develop his mechanics and reap the benefits of the improved accuracy that should accompany it."

Is he African American?

Not to sound racists, but if he is, i don't want him, judging by recent picks of black QBs

Wrong to all of this. If you were watching the same combine I was he isn't a natural passer. UDFA at best. More than likely career is done.

This dude is freaking terrible. He is a good athlete. But he is an insanely dumb player.

I mean he's got the tools to succeed but I don't know if he'll ever put it all together.

the 2nd half of our bowl game he looked the best he's ever had before. And that was running a HUNH fast break offense against fricking Bowling Green.

He had a few key drops from the WR's in some big games (Miss State). He threw a nice deep ball that should have been a TD but ole home boy Shavarez Smith dropped it at around the goal line.

there were other drops in that game too but we still would have gotten our asses handed to us anyway.

I mention that game because that was the best squad we played. But dude just hardly ever sets his feet when pressure is coming and can get real inaccurate with the ball too. He's got a good arm but just seems like a twitchy fricker back there. Just like maybe he's not totally confident or something.

Now I want us to bring him in just to see if the power of contrarianism can forge something...

Lol Blacker the Berry, Sweeter the Juice.

Russell Wilson won a super bowl
Kap got to a Super Bowl
RG3 put the redskins in playoff contention until his knee was destroyed and they changed the offense on him.
Cam Newton is the only reason the Panthers score points in addition he has an amazing defense backing him.
And now Jameis is about to kill it.
