I am sure he will get a chance, likely as FA. Really hard to say which team would sign him but teams always looking for backup QBs so assuming he remains healthy and performs as expected (or better) in post season game, combine and pro day, he should get some looks. Brees as a 2nd rd projected player, so clearly the pro scouts saw more skills and potential than they are seeing for Woodside who at best in projected as 6-7rd or FA. But you never know as pro scouting is far from an perfect science, and often it is about the right opportunity at the right time (including coaches and teammates) and hard work and dedication. Not much was expected for Bruce G coming out of college but he made good NFL career out of it.

Omar Jacobs was a 5th round pick, Bruce 6th round.

The relevant question there is where were they ranked going into the draft? Woodside is currently ranked as 6/7rd/FA-could change depending on how he performs in post season game, combine and pro day.

Most had Bruce as a 5th Rounder #7 QB. Jay Cutler was the most successful QB out of that 2006 Draft. Bruce was probably #3 of the QB's.
