Aaron Rodgers, to me, is not a good gauge. He's been wrong about Harris, Finley, Myles White, etc. Shoot, his favorite WR was Ruvell Martin. I know that had to do with them being buds on the scout team but still. Ruvell is his fav.

It is said that a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and again. Hoping he's right about DA.

What did he say that was wrong? Ruvell Martin wasn't his favorite WR, my goodness, Martin an him are just really good friends.

Aaron Rodgers is convinced that Martin is a pro receiver who, if not in Green Bay, will play somewhere in the NFL this year.

"I'm a big believer in him as a receiver," Rodgers said. "I'd like to see Ruvell make the team; I think he's talented enough. But that's not my decision."

He was in love with Ruvell who, ironically, played WR at the same U as Janis.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Do you see him saying the same about Randall Cobb or Jordy Nelson that he would LIKE to see them make the team? No, because he knows they are going to.

Additionally, I think Aaron gives endorsements with precision.

RC18 is my favorite Packer but I'm not going to get too excited about what a teammate that is in the same room says about another teammate. This goes on EVERYWHERE in the NFL. Just read Alshon Jeffery was talking up Kevin White. It's rampant in the NFL. It means...NOTHING...less than a 40 time.
