Quote:I saw a documentary about the 6 QBs who were taken ahead of Tom Brady, and Bill Belichick said one reason they hesitated to draft Brady was that Michigan was "constantly trying to replace him." But of course, they finally took him anyway, despite their initial misgivings.

You have to look very deeply into issues like the one you cite. Because if you shy away from drafting a guy because he couldn't win the starting job in his first two years, you just might pass over one of the greatest football players of all time!

Tom Brady was Michigan's starter for more than one season, which is a crucial difference. Leadership was not an issue for him. These AFC sources don't think Mitch Trubisky has the "it" factor. They just like him as a passer.
