[QUOTE="Taryn Miller, post: 877327, member: 15181"] As much as you and surely others will disagree, the question that is asked when a player drops in the draft, character concerns. Now let's not jump into it needing to be an off-field character issue, but rather a persona character issue. Hindsight is always 20-20, but we cannot deny that Rodgers persona/character has been a topic for much of his career. There's a reason for his fall in 05' and it likely won't come out until after he retires and those teams speak to it, truthfully, but that's always suspect also. Brady is the extreme outlier and him falling into the hands of Bellichek and NE and the ensuing success will never be seen again. Would the odds be equal or greater that Brady going in the first round to any top 5 team his career would be close to what it is...absolutely not. If fact, the odds are greater that he would have retired years ago. However, how QB's today are seen is much different than with Rodgers and Brady's time of drafting. Apples and oranges comparisons are always used to support weak argument. Lastly, perhaps the 22 teams after SF didn't need a QB or didn't see the need to draft one to sit for three years which I did not do. Maybe they wanted or needed more for the then mindset. [/QUOTE]
