Aaron Rodgers has got to be kicking himself. what does he have to do to catch a break?? last year his 10-1 cal bears get shut out of the BCS...he not only is not the top pick but doesn't get drafted until pick 24.. and now he can't even sniff the field over a shell of himself brett favre..
In some ways he's lucky, no Green, injuries at WR and OL etc. ROdgers would be in a situation just as bad as Smith in SF, and under a hell of a lot more pressure since he'd be playing instead of Favre.
In hindsight taking Rodgers looks a lot smarter now, they took a lot of heat for it at the time and yes he's not helped them at all THIS year, but next draft at least they don't NEED to pick a QB first, they certainly can if they get a shot at Leinart or Young, but they don't have to. If they'd passed on Rodgers this year they'd have been forced to get a QB in the draft or FA.
