Tom Brady: Combine results and workout sources

The 2000 record lists a 5.28 second sprint and a 99 inch broad jump. The latter equals 8 feet 3 inches. The lifting column contains no result.

Read the workout in context

New England selected the Michigan quarterback in the sixth round. His testing offers a dated physical snapshot, not a forecast of passing production. The 24.5 inch vertical and the agility times answer different questions from a season of game film.

What the measurements tell you

The college listed for this draft entry is Michigan. The selection was round 6, pick 199, in 2000, by New England Patriots. This identifies the selecting club rather than a present day team.

The reviewed draft record lists 6 ft 4 in and 211 pounds. Draft measurements describe that point in time. A later team roster can list different measurements, so use a dated roster for a current size question.

Using the results fairly

Jumps test power in different directions. The cone and shuttle use different paths, so their times are not interchangeable. Lifting repetitions do not show catching skill or passing accuracy. These tests add a physical snapshot to a draft report; they do not replace film, production or a medical review.

This table follows the source notes rather than choosing the best mark from several events. Where a second report differs, the event note explains the gap. We publish no percentile without a defined comparison group, sample size and calculation.

What to check for this record

The 99 inch broad jump equals 8 feet 3 inches, rather than 98 inches. The 7.20 second cone and 4.38 second shuttle measure different routes. Keep the two test labels beside their values when checking a historical comparison.

Questions readers ask

Which draft team selected this player?

New England Patriots selected the Michigan QB in round 6, at pick 199, in 2000. This is draft history, not a current roster claim.

What does an empty test field mean?

It means the reviewed source does not record a result. It does not mean zero, and it does not prove why the athlete did not have a listed mark.

Sources and review method

We checked the linked records for this update. Team and school reports can explain the event. Historical tables compile results and may leave fields empty. We keep that distinction visible and do not claim an affiliation with the source publishers.
