Do you think Tom Brady might be on the list? View who made the cut and who got left off. Also, for any Jets and Colts fans, the 21st century is a term for a period of time that started in 2000, so don't ask why Peyton Manning isn't on there.

A pretty solid list, but as the writer puts it, this group is "thinner than Nicole Ritchie." Scarcity leads to average guys getting big contracts. Who will be the NFL's Gil Meche?

Looks like Belichick has decided he DOES need players to win it all. Starting with Thomas and then bringing in Morris (RB), Brady (TE), and Welker (WR) is a pretty good start. Now all he needs is to add some ILB talent and WR talent through the draft and perhaps more depth at CB and S.
