Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady might be one of the best ever to cleat up. He’s also one who can tell any draft prospect the nervy anticipation of draft day. The former 199th pick in the 2000 NFL Draft had a strongly worded message for this year’s class. Brady and his rise to the pinnacle of the top are well-documented. He wants the rookies to maintain or even improve the level of competition in the league.

The 7-time Super Bowl champion took to Twitter to share some Draft day motivation for the NFL stars of the future. He states, “I don’t give a s*** if you are a first-round pick, I was 199. If you get a chance to be on the field, don’t mess it up, because you may never get a second one.” Brady wants them to seize this life-changing opportunity to become legends after playing in the league.

The Buccaneers QB’s ultimate underdog story will be one of the leading examples for most of these NFL prospects. While Brady had to grind since the beginning of his NFL career to prove his worth, he calls for these prospects to maintain their desire to play in the league.

The Tom Brady story that every true NFL fan knows

Being a late-round draft pick in the NFL means that there aren’t many expectations from the player. But the Patriots selecting a young Brady with their 199th overall pick in the 2000 NFL Draft ended that theory. He was a 6th-round pick and eventually turned out to be one of the biggest steals in NFL Draft history.

The former Patriots QB was able to single-handedly change the format in which NFL Draft prospects were previously perceived. His instant impact under head coach Bill Belichick to win a Super Bowl title in his second season set the standard and drew worldwide attention. The current Buccaneers QB has since legitimized his status as the G.O.A.T of American football.
