From no-name rookie to the GOAT, here's how Brady was able to perform in Madden every year from the time when he first joined the league Mut 22 coins, which he would go on to reshape forever. If you're not interested in football's past, you might also enjoy the year-by-year image gallery of Brady's persona in Madden, from his first real-life appearance in Madden 2003 right all the way to today.

If you've not heard in the past few minutes--as if you'd been stuck on Mars for the last 22 years, Brady was selected at the 6th round which was 199th overall, from the Patriots in the 2000 NFL Draft. He joined the league as a seemingly unremarkable quarterback and his debut Madden rating showed that. Brady made just three throws that season, in spot roles behind Drew Bledsoe, connecting on one for six yards. Nobody, not even the New York Jets--knew who Brady would eventually become.

Perhaps because of his lack of playing time up to this point, or perhaps due to the darts on a board nature of virtually unknown players in Madden Brady's overall performance actually went down one point in Madden NFL 02, which was the time of the beginning in the season 2001.

It wouldn't be long before Brady would make his official debut, though, coming in for injured Drew Bledsoe when the Jets' Mo Lewis clobbered the starting QB , sending his team to the bench in the third week of the season. The rest of the story is over cheap mut coins. At the point that Bledsoe could be fit enough to return to work, he'd already lost his job to the young popular Tom Brady.
