5 NFL Quarterbacks Who Will Improve In 2017 (And 5 Who Won't)

As crazy as it sounds, Tom Brady can and will get better. It seems incredibly unlikely, as Father Time is undefeated and Brady will be 40 by the time the 2017 season kicks off. However, Tom Terrific has shown no signs of slowing down and, at this point, we should all give him the benefit of the doubt. What's more, for the first time since Randy Moss, Brady has a bona fide stud receiver to throw to in the form of Brandin Cooks.

Julian Edelman and Danny Amendola, Brady's most prolific receivers, are potent threats, but between them, have only registered two seasons with 1,000+ receiving yards. Cooks, on the other hand, is entering his fourth season and has caught 1,100+ receiving yards in each of the past two.

Cooks is younger, more athletic, and more explosive than any of Brady's other receivers, which will add a dangerous new element to an already elite offense in New England. Add to that the return of a healthy Rob Gronkowski and Brady may be unstoppable in 2017.
