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

[Highlandfire]

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?

Let me get this straight. You would love to see us get a top 3 NFL QB late in the draft?

Someone should make you the GM.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

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

[HSCBandit07]

arguably 2 of the three best are late draft aquisitions

[TheRealDeal]

The 2nd QB taken in the first round is late draft?

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

wow this is great news...Arron Rogers is re-entering the draft? I hope we can snag him in the third....AJ Green it is then!

[higgs]

Yeah, so would I....

[scarface]

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.

Farve.

But if we don't trade down I think the pick is Defense hands down with this new staff.

BOOO!!!!!

[Mother Grabber]

The problem is that we don't have the luxury to bring along yet another project. Rogers was able to sit behind Faverah for a few years before he had to play. We have QB projects, we need someone who can play now while we determine if our projects are ever going to be anything more than that.

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...

[TheRealDeal]

Yes because Favre was so keen on helping the youngster out, that's all he wanted to do

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

[Dpantherman]

Yea, but the only reason Rodgers was at 23, is because the 49ers FO was dumb as poo.
