Tom Brady Fantasy

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady looked very sharp against the Titans in a joint practice on Wednesday. All reports indicate the 42-year-old looked like his vintage self, accurately spreading the ball around all over the field. The Patriots offense is currently in a state of flux with important injuries to several key positions. But Brady knows how to run the offense in his sleep and looks like he is beginning to round into shape. Fantasy owners, however, need to temper their enthusiasm for Brady in their upcoming drafts.

New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady isn't expected to play in the team's preseason opener against the Detroit Lions on Thursday, according to a source. It isn't a big surprise, as the Patriots likely know what he is capable of doing by now. The veteran quarterback has been getting plenty of work in during the first two days of joint practices with head coach Matt Patricia's team, and this is par for the course for Brady. It wouldn't be surprising to see Brady rest for most of the preseason in an effort to keep him preserved for when the games start counting. Brady has devolved into more of a low-end QB2 in most fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams at this juncture of his career.

That puts Brady in a Pats uniform past his 44th birthday. He's set to make an extra $8 million this season, moving his salary from $15 million to $23 million. He'll then make $30 million in 2020 and $32 million in 2021. With that said, Brady has always been willing to adjust for the well-being of the team and that won't change this time around, per Ian Rapoport. It's almost 10 years ago that the Patriots drafted his "replacement" in Ryan Mallett, who has now come and gone from the league entirely. Brady keeps on chugging and we get to witness another two years of greatness.
