“When you hear him speak, I always judge quarterbacks, how would I have answered that?”
Tom Brady today on the Colin Cowherd Show talking about Fernando Mendoza.
Shockingly, Brady did not announce that Raiders would be selecting Mendoza with the first overall pick, but he did say “he’s got a bright future.”
“All these young prospects, I hope they go to environments that embrace them completely.”
Brady’s firsthand look at Mendoza

Gives some insight into what he is thinkin. Boy has a lot to learn and it takes time.
Damn it’s gonna be a long 3 months lol… I hope they do the right thing and take Fernando
I wonder who the 199th pick in the draft was.
why would he publicly announce who they are taking on a talk show lol
Raiders are going to select Mendoza.. but obviously Brady has to be careful with his wording here. Bottomline hearing Brady speak here and then hearing the way Mendoza conducts himself and cant help but to notice the glaring mental similarities. Yes football is a very physical sport, but the mental aspects of it all, the mindset that you have should not be overlooked. Mendoza has shown a mindset that far exceeds his age. That right there sets him apart miles above the rest. No branier pick.. we got ourselves a bright FUTURE
Very careful wording by Brady as mentioned. Even had to have an entire reasoning unrelated to the raiders for why he was at the game and why he was on the field. Didn’t mention being spotted with Davis and Spytek. Also didn’t actually answer the question and tied his answer to applying to all prospects.
Fernando is 100% the pick
“Shockingly…”
I don’t think it’s very shocking. It would be shocking if he DID come out and say “Oh, yeah, we’re drafting him no question about it”. Everybody in the world can know we’re drafting the kid but the league gets pissed if a team comes out and says it early. They’ll drag it out to draft night.

He speaks exactly like Mendoza.
Why does clip make me want to punch Colin’s face?
So sad he’s gonna end up on the Raiders.. such a shitty franchise that does not know how to develop players
If they panned the camera down they would see that Tom is ***HARD*** for Mendoza XD
He’s trying hard not to grin about everyone knowing who the #1 pick is
I so hoped his shirt said No Bill and it was a dig at Belichick
That foam finger bothers me tho. I know he was a 9ers fan growing up but it was a choice to have it in frame.
When the hell did Brady win an Emmy?
Cowherd has such a punchable face
49ers foam finger in the background.
The Cuban missile is coming to Vegas. If they don’t draft him I swear I will never ever in my lifetime will I support this franchise. I’ve seen such horrible QB play since the Gannon era all I want is a Super Bowl win before I die.

Hes going to be spending a few weeks at uncle tomshouse like Brady has done with wrs in the past
Upon further review…
At first glance, the Tom Brady sound bite on Fernando Mendoza today felt generically Brady-esque.
But with just six words mixed into his minute-48 answer, Brady actually said quite a bit.
“ARE YOU OBSESSED WITH YOUR JOB?”
If that’s the bar Brady is setting for the Raiders , we’ll either have a 12-man roster next year or win the Super Bowl.
And I’m here for it.
Just don’t fuck up the pick. And protect his ass in Free Agency
He kinda described Fernando.
It’s gonna be a long few months and even more annoying with all this Lamar trade bs. Just fix the Oline and draft Mendoza.
All that just to draft Diego Pavia
They need to trade the pick for Russell Wilson
