Not only do they not have to pay him $15M to be a backup, they get a 2nd round pick to go with it.

More like they were very pragmatic, its simply the only option unless you think Brady isn't going to be Brady anymore. They are staring down some serious free agent issues going forward right now, they can't afford to be paying their backup QB $15M when they have Wilfork, Seymour and Mankins they have to think about extending to sizable contracts. How would that fly in negotiations if they aren't offering them top dollar?
