WHERE ARE THEY NOW? The 6 quarterbacks drafted before Tom Brady in the infamous 2000 NFL Draft by Cork Gaines on Jan 22, 2017, 5:08 PM Advertisement
Tom Brady is now 39 years old and in his 17th season as a quarterback for the New England Patriots. Despite his age, Brady is still one of the top quarterbacks in the league and continues to add to his legacy as one of the top quarterbacks in the history of the game. Brady's amazing career began in April, 2000, when the Patriots famously rolled the dice and drafted the Michigan quarterback in the sixth round with the 199th pick overall. New England made the move despite Brady being thoroughly unimpressive at the NFL Combine. Just as famously, six other teams drafted quarterbacks before Brady. Below we take a look at what happened to those other quarterbacks. SEE ALSO: The Jets used the 18th pick on Marshall quarterback Chad Pennington.
