Tom Brady was overlooked in the NFL Draft for a number of reasons. First, he was not a physically imposing quarterback. He was listed at 6’4″ and 225 pounds, which was considered small for an NFL quarterback at the time. Second, Brady did not have the strongest arm. His 40-yard dash time of 5.28 seconds was also below average for an NFL quarterback.
Despite his physical limitations, Brady was a very intelligent and accurate quarterback. He was also a very good leader. However, many NFL teams were hesitant to draft Brady because of his physical limitations and his lack of experience.
Brady was drafted by the New England Patriots in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft. The Patriots were one of the few teams that were willing to take a chance on Brady. They believed in his intelligence, accuracy, and leadership.
Brady went on to have a Hall of Fame career with the Patriots. He won six Super Bowls and was named Super Bowl MVP four times. He is widely considered to be the greatest quarterback of all time.
It was more than luck that led Brady to the Patriots. The Patriots believed in Brady’s potential, and they were willing to take a chance on him. Brady also worked hard to improve his game. He put on weight and muscle, and he worked on strengthening his arm.
Brady’s story is an inspiration to all athletes. It shows that anything is possible if you work hard and believe in yourself.
