PFF Immortals: Buccaneers' Tom Brady inducted into PFF Hall of Fame

Over the last 16 NFL seasons, PFF has graded every player on every play of every game to create the best source of NFL analysis available. There have been hundreds of great players over that time, but the biggest football database on the planet allows us to focus on the very best to ever do it. 

To celebrate the modern-day legends of the game, PFF has created exclusive NFTs to award to these players, the PFF immortals, who will go down as some of the greatest players in NFL history.


Pick 199 in the NFL draft has become synonymous with Thomas Edward Patrick Brady Jr. The single biggest draft steal of all time already established himself as a three-time Super Bowl winner before PFF started grading in 2006, but he saved his best years for the twilight of his career. Brady added four more rings in the PFF era and has had four seasons with PFF grades over 90.0 after the age of 40. His continued longevity is only the icing on the cake of the greatest football career the quarterback position has ever seen.
