Follow Us
It’s been 20 years since Tom Brady was picked by the New England Patriots in the 2000 NFL draft. The lanky lad from California was the last quarterback (199th overall) to be picked in that year’s draft event. However, we all know how that story ended.
Brady arrived in New England as a back-up to the back-up of the great Drew Bledsoe. He did not play in his first rookie year in the league. However, Brady got his chance when Bledsoe got injured during the 2001 season and he made the most of it. Over the last two decades, Brady and head coach Bill Belichick led the Patriots to six Super Bowl titles.
