Great article on Brady

[MTK]

I'd be willing to guarantee a lot of time is spent by scouts and coaches trying to pick up on the intangibles of players. These are multi-million dollar investments we're talking about. It's just such an inexact science though. You're trying to predict what kind of player he may become.

You can't measure a guy's heart or work ethic. And at the time a player is drafted compared to 10 years down the road, a player can do a complete 180 in terms of work ethic and understanding of the game. That's why it's not uncommon to see QB's develop so late in their careers.

Well, Danny Wuerfell had "intangibles" I think it is safer to go with the guy with the big arm that put up big numbers. There is still no guarantee of success. Brady was a huge surprise. So much of a surprise that there still continues to be articles written about him being drafted in the 6th.
