    According to NFL.com's Thomas George, Andre Woodson, the quarterback taken by the New York Giants with the 198th pick in this weekend's draft, shows many similarities to someone named Tom Brady. You may have heard of him. George thinks he's the best quarterback in this draft. Here's and excerpt from the article.

    "Tom Brady was drafted eight years ago at pick No. 199.

    Andre Woodson went to the Giants on Sunday afternoon at pick No. 198.

    Similarities exist in these sixth-round picks. Both are quarterbacks with big arms. Both possess superior football intelligence. Both found their college production relatively ignored.

    And the major common element: Too many teams passed on these two snappy passers.

    I am not saying that Woodson is Brady.

    I am saying that Woodson was certainly not deserving of being the 12th quarterback taken in this draft. He deserved much more.

    And I believe he will become the best quarterback in this draft".

    Just because they were picked in almost the same spot... They'll be nothing alike.

    This guy should be fired for writing this. I've seen Woodson play in person, and I'm a UK fan. Unless someone can teach him how to be smart, he'll never make it in the NFL.

    Well I happen to agree with you guys, but what if someone said Brady was the next Joe Montana and the best quarterback in the draft the day after he was drafted? This is clearly him wanting to be the guy who made a crazy predicion involving mentioning the names of Brady and Woodson in the same breath, and being right.
