And the thing is, how successful would that Patriot team be if they hadn't gotten lucky with a 6th round pick that they had to be talked into taking?
There's more to the Brady saga than just luck. That's crazy talk.

I just think chalking the entire Brady legacy up to "luck" is selling the entire process extremely short.

It's a very jaded way to look at things. But I guess that should probably be expected from a fanbase like ours.

It's perfectly acceptable to be skeptical, but if the changes made to this team in the last year don't give a person reason for hope, I'd have to question my love for the game.

I'm not sure, really, how that's jaded.

Teams don't draft QBs in the sixth round with any real expectation of getting a starter, much less one of the best ever.

If they didn't see anything in him - the definition of luck - they wouldn't have drafted him at all.

There have been a lot of QBs drafted over the years in the 6th or 7th rounds.

75 or 80 in the last 20 years.

They all had something that the teams drafted saw in them, but only 3 ever actually amounted to more than scrubs, unless you want to include guys like Jeff Blake and and Rodney Peete, and a couple of others of that ilk.

But the only real success stories are Brady, Matt Hasselbeck and Marc Bulger.

If we're lucky, we might be able to add Cassel to that small group.

I'm not saying there wasn't luck involved. But it takes MORE than just luck, and you know that.
