5 QBs taken before Tom Brady: Where are they now? (2022)

#4 - Tee Martin (Round 5: Pick 163)

Tee Martin #17 of the Pittsburgh Steelers

The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Martin in the fifth round, but he wouldn’t throw a single pass in his rookie season.

2002 saw him move to Germany in NFL Europe where he would represent Rhein Fire before returning to the NFL with the Oakland Raiders.

He was released after throwing less than 20 passes and would never play in the league again.

Yet, Martin remains involved in the NFL. The former QB is now the wide receivers coach with the Baltimore Ravens, while his son is none other than Amari Rodgers, a wide receiver for the Green Bay Packers.

#3 - Chris Redman (Round 3: Pick 75)

Chris Redman #7 of the Baltimore Ravens

Redman was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens in the third round of the draft, but he primarily served as a backup.

His resume will show him to be a Super Bowl champion with the Ravens in the 2000 season, although he only spent three years with them.

Ironically, Redman was almost a teammate of Brady's in 2004 when he was signed to the Patriots' practice squad, although he wasn’t given a contract.

Redman currently resides in Louisville, Kentucky, and his most recent claim to fame is featuring in a demonstration of tankless water saving units at his home.

He spends a lot of time assisting his son in his youth football career.
