People who think Brady is just going to play as long as he wants, deep into his 40s, are nuts. Father Time is undefeated.

Brady is nearing that age where QBs inexplicably just fall off a cliff. It happens and it will happen to him. He's got 2 years tops at the highest level. Maybe a year after where he's passable.

Sign Jimmy G to a big deal and let Brady play a few more years if he's still playing well...but I would hold on to Jimmy.

Jimmy hasn't done enough to warrant a big deal. He has two starts under his belt. Patriots can wait until Brady is on the ropes before drafting his replacement. He's not on the ropes yet.

Belichick isn't going to pay 2 Qb's significant money. Brady's cap hits in 2018 and 19 are $22 million. If you franchise tag Jimmy G it will cost you $23 mil for one year

Give Jimmy G a incentive laden contact if he'll accept knowing that he will succeed under BB, if not trade him.

They could also tag him but that's costly for a backup

We are talking about the Patriots, aren't we?

They are known for, aaaa hum, doing nefarious things to stay ahead.

They aren't letting G go without some heavy compensation.
