I would love to see us get an Aaron Rogers later in the draft

He was drafted what...23rd? Some knocks on him being a system QB etc. The guy sat for 3 years and look at what he has done the last 3 as a starter. I think very quickly he belongs in the Peyton manning/ Tom Brady discussion as the best QB in the NFL. I watched his PC they had on NFLN a little while ago, damn good guy all around.

Point? We don't need THE #1 pick spend on a QB to get a great one. There are some guys later on I think can be good if we give them a couple years. But if we don't trade down I think the pick is Defense hands down with this new staff.

This.

Hurney spent 8 of the last 9 drafts grabbing guys that fit specifically into Fox's scheme and were also guys that Fox wanted. Does anyone think that he is really going to do any different with Rivera?

He was picked 23rd because no team besides Green Bay needed a QB at that point. I remember because I won a bet that he would drop and be picked by Green Bay at 23.

Who's gonna play for the 3 years while he sits on the bench?
Farve.

BOOO!!!!!

I wonder what Rodgers' rookie year would have looked like had he been put on a crappy team with no veteran leadership, a makeshift offensive line, and Jeff Davidson calling plays for him. And forced to start.

Actually, I'm positive that several of you would have seen his potential and declared him elite. Because that's how you roll... :D

....and no running game whatsoever for at least half the season.

      This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
