Bill Polian claims he was very high on Tom Brady when the Indianapolis Colts already had Peyton Manning.
Polian was asked which quarterbacks the Colts may have drafted if they didn't already have Manning.
"Well, (Ben) Roethlisberger later on (in 2004) -- we were really high on him. Aaron Rodgers the year after," Polian said. "That's the only name that comes to mind right away. And I don't think there was a guy in between, but Tom Brady would have been a guy, and we were very high on him. Our guys really loved him, but we weren't in the quarterback market, obviously. Those would be the guys I remember us giving solid, first-round, can-lead-you-to-a-championship grades."
Brady was drafted 199th overall in 2000 by the New England Patriots.
