I may be wrong on this, but I think the Packer future looks like the Tampa Bay/Baltimore model.......great D with a QB serviceable enough to not lose games.
Now we just need to draft that stud RB.

We have a winner! I guess that was too easy, eh Joe? Those young QB's are ranked by age from youngest to oldest.Originally posted by Joemailman
Rodgers is also younger than both Ingle Martin and Paul Thompson.Comment

I didn't think Rodgers was younger than Vince. Wow.Originally posted by vince
Wait a minute Vince. You conveniently excluded Alex Smith. He has already started for 2 years, and is younger than all those guys. He's almost 6 months younger than Rodgers.Comment

That was my first thought, but I believe your list has an error. According to NFL.com Jackson is actually older than Cutler, not younger, by 8 days.Originally posted by vince
Jackson 4/21/1983
Cutler 4/29/1983
Switch those two and your list is correct, per nfl.comComment

I just vaguely remembered reading last year that ARod was younger than most of the guys drafted by the Pack in the 2006 draft.Originally posted by vinceI can't run no more with that lawless crowd

Yes, that was convenient, and a good catch Scott. It doesn't change the point though, which is that Aaron Rodgers appears to have improved a lot in his time in the league, and is still very young - two positives for him.Originally posted by Scott Campbell
Rodgers may never be as good as those QB's listed already starting elsewhere, but his time learning and growing in this system and under Brett Favre appears to be serving him well thus far, so only time will tell that.
A lot of quarterbacks have had to wait awhile before seeing the field for any significant time and becoming starters. While that is also the case with Rodgers, even if he doesn't see the field for two more years, he'll still be plenty young enough to contribute many many years in the league - assuming he continues to develop and display the skills and effectiveness he demonstrated last night.Comment

Lets not forget that there have been a few decent starting QB's in this league that only had a chance to show what they could do in preseason games backing up Favre.Comment

Why is he so young? Did he skip a grade or two?Comment

It's been mentioned here that Rodgers, if and when he gets his chance, won't have that deep threat to go to. I am starting to think that Holiday might end up being that guy. With his size, strength, and determination to go after the ball over a DB's back shows me that he might be a playmaker for this team. I really like this guy, and I think he might really end up being a special player."...one thing about me during the course of a game, I get emotional and say things my grandmother lets me know about later. But nobody wants to win on that field anymore than I do, no one." Brett FavreComment
