Reply to comment by EddieRando21 in TIL Tom Brady was drafted by the Montreal Expos baseball team while still in high school, but instead chose to play football in college. This technically makes him the last player drafted by the Expos still playing professional sports. by _Abe_Froman_SKOC

He trained Garoppalo, who's already been tossed by the wayside by the same team, so I don't know how much value his "training" actually has.

Jimmy G was made of glass. Difference between Tom and all of these mobile quarter backs is that Tom stayed in the pocket and knew when to get rid of the ball to avoid a sack. Patrick, Josh, Lamar, yeah they are good now. But all with those hits they are taking they won't have the same longevity as Tom Brady. Not saying Josh and Patrick can't make plays from the pocket because they do. However, the point remains that thier mobility to extend to the plays right now cost them some devastating hits. First thing to go for a professional is their legs.
