All the quarterbacks picked before Tom Brady in the NFL Draft

#4 - Tee Martin, Round 5, Pick 163

Tee Martin #17 with the Pittsburgh Steelers

Tee Martin was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers with the 163rd overall pick of the 2000 draft after starring for Tennessee at college. However, his career in the NFL wasn’t so fruitful, as he only spent one year in Pittsburgh, before moving to Rhein Fire in NFL Europe. Martin would also play for the Philadelphia Eagles and Oakland Raiders afterwards, but would only complete six career passes in the pros.

He has found more success in the coaching game and currently serves as the wide receivers coach for the Baltimore Ravens, but his playing career in the NFL will ultimately go down as a disappointment.

#5 - Marc Bulger, Round 6, Pick 168

St Louis Rams v San Francisco 49ers

Marc Bulger was the first quarterback drafted in the same round as Tom Brady, as the New Orleans Saints drafted him in round-six with the 168th overall selection. Bugler went on to have one of the best careers of the quarterbacks on this list, playing for the Saints, Atlanta Falcons, St. Louis Rams and Baltimore Ravens in a career that spanned 10 years.

Bulger would see most of his success in St. Louis, where he played from 2000-2009, and made two Pro Bowls in 2003 and 2006.

Bulger would, however, struggle with injuries and inconstancy during his time in the NFL, and ended his career with a 41-54 record as a starter, passing for 122 touchdowns against 93 interceptions.

#6 - Spergon Wynn, Round 6, Pick 183

Spergon Wynn #13

The final quarterback selected before Tom Brady in the 2000 draft was Spergon Wynn, who was selected by the Cleveland Browns with the 183rd overall selection, just 17 picks before the Greatest of All-Time was drafted. Wynn’s career in the pros was nothing short of a disaster, as he only spent one year in Cleveland, where he started only one game, a 48-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Wynn, like many others on this list, spent time in NFL Europe with the Amsterdam Admirals before re-joining the NFL where he joined the Minnesota Vikings. However, he only passed for one touchdown against six interceptions while in Minneapolis.

Wynn would spend time in the CFL, with the BC Lions, Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Toronto Argonauts before calling time on his playing career in 2006.
