When they took Brady in the 6th round...To most teams that's a "hope" pick. But they knew what they wanted. Look at Indy with D-Linemen and Pittsburgh with linebackers and undrafted free agents. Contrast that with Matt Millen's pathetic performance in Detroit or Al Davis' track record for the lat 25 years. There is a way to do it. I'm surprised the less successful organizations don't learn.

It's easy to recognize the players with outstanding talent, but to recognize those that fit a need--whether that be into a system in the NFL or minor league development in baseball--is truly an art.

It's easy to recognize the players with outstanding talent, but to recognize those that fit a need–whether that be into a system in the NFL or minor league development in baseball–is truly an art.
