etc.Here, in order, are the GMs of other teams who “had” to take Rodgers because he fell into their laps:
Miami
Cleveland
Chicago
Tampa Bay
It's almost as though I wrote it myself Jack. There were more gutsy deals, BJ was even gutsy. But how can you argue that bringing in a HOF potential QB to follow in the footsteps of a HOF QB is not the best move?
Remember, TT had some busts too. But nobody can deny it took a vision of where he wanted this team to go. There were other QBs available since then, he took a position of FUTURE need because he was BPA.
Who's a better QB drafted since Rodgers? I mean, it's not like Brady, Manning, Rodgers and Brees type QBs are there every year. And the very fact that so many GMs passed on him, whether they needed a QB or not, just screams of TT's vision. I like alot of what TT has done, but I really think this would be a different franchise with a "Sanchize" or "MattyIce" instead of "Godgers".
If that's luck, then all those other teams are real unlucky, all they had to do was punch the Rodgers ticket. I bet GMs after GB were kicking themselves in the behind that even if he fell to them, they might have passed on him too. Only they know what their boards read. Remember how high Wolf was on BrInt after Atlanta got him? But he had the 'nads to go get him. Nobody ever called Wolf "lucky"
C'mon folks, no player has a bigger impact on this team day to day than Aaron Rodgers right?
