Tom Brady had a good piece of advice for future NFL players just hours before the 2019 draft.
While Brady is new to Twitter, he has learned how to use the app well and took his time Thursday to offer an inspirational message.
"Good luck to everyone waiting to hear their name called tonight," he wrote. "Remember, there’s more than just going in the first round!"

And he wasn't done yet. He drove the point home in a series of tweets.
"or the second...," he wrote.

Brady, of course, is famous for going in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft (No. 199 overall). He knows a player doesn't have to be taken at the top in order to be successful.
The 41-year-old has won more Super Bowls than any quarterback in NFL history (six) while earning 14 Pro Bowl selections and three MVP awards.
"you get it," Brady wrote.

It doesn't matter where a player is taken, he can be a success wherever he goes.
