Tom Brady

Everyone's asking how Brady will play in 2009 following the ACL tear in game 1 last year.

Chances are, the knee will probably still not be 100% for the first snap...but in reality a ACL isn't as big a deal for quarterbacks, for it doesn't effect their throwing motion.

A running back or WR would be different...as ACL's often cause them to have a so-so season or worse as their confidence in the knee improves. A quarterback may have a little pop lost in his scrambling ability, but not their arm.

Brady may have always had the ability to scramble, but it's only due to his vision and decision making, not his blazing speed. For a giggle...watch his 40 yard dash time.

Brady should be the first QB off the board, so if your league goes on a RB happy first round, be ready to take him if he falls. Also, I still have to see Randy Moss play during the preseason before I start ranking, i think Randy Moss might be my #1 overall reciever choice.

The Patriots offense should bounce back in 2009, and Brady and Moss should be some of the top producers.
