It appears the Las Vegas Raiders will be in play for quarterback TomBrady if he hits free agency, and here is why it does, or why it does not make sense.

With the recent reports that the Las Vegas Raiders will pursue Tom Brady in free agency if he does not re-sign with the New England Patriots, one has to wonder if it is the right move. Brady is a six-time Super Bowl winning quarterback, but he is also going to be 43-years old next season, and is coming off a very pedestrian 2019 campaign.

Tom Brady is no doubt one of the best, if not the best, quarterbacks of all-time, as he has proven time and time again that he can get it done in the most important moments. Derek Carr has struggled over the last few years as the Raiders starting quarterback, and although it may not be his fault, one playoff appearance in six seasons is not cutting it.

So, should the Raiders take the risk of signing the veteran quarterback, should they stick with Derek Carr, or should they draft a young, new rookie? If the Raiders do sign Brady, there will be a number of pros and cons that come with it, as he brings a lot to the table, but is he really a solution under center?

Let’s take a look at three pros and cons to signing Tom Brady.
