New England Patriots: 3 takeaways from my fantasy draft
By Sam Minton
Tom Brady is still the best
Tom Brady will go down as the greatest quarterback of all-time. There is no doubt about that. Year in and year out he puts up amazing numbers. No player has aged as well as Brady.
Last year. Brady threw for 4,577 yards and 32 touchdowns. With the New England Patriots being a pass-heavy offense he is perfect for fantasy.
Brady tallied over 350 fantasy points last season. Not bad for a 40-year-old drafted in the 6th round.
Brady was swooped up quickly this year. He was the first QB drafted (21st overall). Aaron Rodgers was drafted right afterward. Some may say that Rodgers is better, but I don’t think it’s crazy to draft Brady in the 2nd round.
Brady has shown no signs of slowing down. Last season he was a top-three fantasy quarterback.
Brady is projected to put up 424 points in my league. Until the man retires he will be one of the first quarterbacks drafted.
