Bottom line is that if Michigan developed Brady as much as many Michigan fans thump their chests about, then he wouldn't have been a sixth-round pick.

Meh, the same is true of us as tOSU fans and Troy. We all talk about JTs development of an Elite 11 QB (who performed pretty well at that function) and how he made him what he is today (a 6th round pick).
Yeah, Meat thumps their chest over Brady....yada yada yada, and we do about JT and Troy. They were both highly regarded in some sense prior to committing to a school. I'll give Meat their due that they helped Brady along and JT obviously helped Troy. Yes, the change was more dramatic in that Troy had to be transformed from runner to mobile-yet-pocket-QB versus Brady simply matriculating as the same type of QB, but it seems clear that Meat had involvement in Brady's evolution.
