Tom Brady gives cryptic response when asked about NFL future, plus best landing spots for top-25 free agents

Welcome to the March 3 edition of the Pick Six newsletter!

This is a big day for people who cover the NFL and that’s mainly because it’s the one day per year where we get to talk about hand sizes and not sound weird while doing it. Every quarterback will have their hands measured at the NFL combine today and those measurements started with Pitt QB Kenny Pickett, who had a size of just 8.5 inches. I had like five jokes ready for that measurement, but I’m not going to use any of them. Instead, I’m going to tell you why this is bad news for Pickett: No current NFL QB has hands that small and only one QB this century (Michael Vick) has been successful with hands that small. 

The good news for Pickett is that if he becomes a sports writer, 8.5 inches is more than big enough to hit every button on your laptop’s keyboard. Anyway, we’ll be covering the combine in today’s newsletter, plus we’ll be looking at Tom Brady’s latest cryptic comments. That guy has made a lot of cryptic comments since retiring. 

As always, here’s your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the newsletter. All you have to do is click here and then share the link. Alright, let’s get to the rundown. 

Wait, before we get to the rundown, happy birthday to my wife! She’ll be thrilled to know that I’ll be watching guys getting their hands measured at the combine today instead of celebrating with her.

Wilson has been in Indianapolis since Tuesday mingling…
