ARod, Aaron Kampman, and Will Blackmon made the list ("Honoring those who won little acclaim").

"There's a lot of interest in the draft. It's great. But quite frankly, most of the people that are commenting on it don't know anything about what they are talking about."--Ted Thompson -
That's got to be a tough article to write. How do you uncover the hidden gems on 32 different teams?
Not sure Kampman gets to be a "Joe" anymore.
I would nominate Darren Colledge as a Joe. -
Yeah, Kampman was a disappointment last season to me, after building a reputation the year before.
Jenkins would have been the ideal "Joe" if he had stayed healthy and played like he did early.
Colledge maybe, but only because he played so bad in '07 that he artificially lowered expectations. I really don't see anybody else other than Rodgers. Everybody else either was expected to be outstanding (Jennings), or played a little worse in '08 than in '07 (Lee, Spitz, Jones, Hawk, Bigby, etc. etc.--even Crosby).
Blackmon, yes--as a kick returner, and maybe Tramon Williams would be possibilities too.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

Its hard to say whether Kampman was down, or he had less opportunities because the defense sucked.Originally posted by texaspackerbacker
I meant Kampman is not a joe because he's been named to the pro bowl in the past.Comment

A lifetime "Joe" award should go to Mark Tauscher, perhaps the "Joest" Joe on the Packers for years. Clifton had been locked out of Pro Bowls, but was recognized at least. Tauscher has been largely ignored.Comment
