Aaron Rodgers?

I think they want a "break-out player", not broken.....

#4.
Under McCarthy's control, he is, at least in my opinion, finally fulfilling his true potential. When the out-of-control gunslinger mentality is kept in check, the rookie mistakes disappear, and the Packers win games.

Jennings, Grant and Jolly were better than expected. All are good canidates but there was hope that they could be good. Some of the offseason reports gave me a glimmer (as slight as it was) of hope that Bigby could be good.

Last off season, I had zero faith that we had anything that resembled an NFL caliber TE. I was hoping that Bubba could return to form and at least give us something but thought for sure that Lee would be cut for some rookie FA. Lee has played outstanding and might deserve a trip to the Probowl. Lee gets my vote. I would have never imagined him having the season he's had. Hope he keeps it up.

Atari Bigby?

Jolley, Bigby, Grant, Lee and jennings

First, I wouldn't consider Bigby a break out player. He plays like a linebacker which at times is awesome, but he can't cover worth a lick, which as a DB, is a problem. I'm still on the fence about him.

Here's my breakout player of the year, and for most of you who know me...it might be a wait for it......wait for it....Brady Poppinga. With Hawk and Barnett I considered us solid at LB, and have considered Poop the liability, and at times I still do, and still think he's a bit slow to cover the TE which he is mostly responsible for, but he plays with a fire, fills holes with a meaning, is around almost every tackle, and just like AJ Hawk, but propbably more so, gives us an additude...and I like it.

Not even the most diehard fan on this site predicted the #'s he put up this season

Bigby was a player that was on nobody's radar before camp started. He has now garnered NFC D player of the week a few times and has made himself known. I'd definitely keep him on my list.

Jennings was as good last year, we saw it at the beginning of the season. He was hobbled by injury, but we knew he was good.

Grant is pretty intriguing as a candidate. He was expected to be good, but who knew how good...

But who expected Jolly to have the kind of season he has? He kinda came from nowhere, so he gets my vote.

Speaking of John Jolly, anyone know when he's expected back?
Or Kabeer ? I guess MM isn't giving out the info til last minute,
that's ok too.....

OH I forgot, Greg Jennings has had my vote since the first time I
saw him take off running - man could he run that ball !!

Jolly is on IR. He'll be back next year.

[The Leaper]

Gotta go with Grant...none of us even knew who the guy was in the first month of the year.

[Packers4Ever]

Jolly is on IR. He'll be back next year.

OUCH !
Thanks, Zool,

A lot of players played better than expected. Donald Lee. Clifton bounced back from some down years. Its almost more challenging to look for weaknesses. The fullbacks have been unimpressive.
