Quarterback Rank: #1 Overall: #7
Rodgers missed some time last season because of concussions, which is a bit of a concern going forward, but he still enjoyed another huge season. He threw for nearly 4,000 yards and had 32 total touchdowns to just 11 interceptions. Rodgers had five 300-yard games and six games with three or more touchdowns. Over the last three years, Rodgers averages 4,132-passing yards and 33 total touchdowns. He also has been picked off just 31 times in three seasons despite attempting more than 1,500 passes. Rodgers is an underrated runner. He has at least 200-rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns each of the last three seasons. This part of his game can be overlooked, but is a real asset. Rodgers has a great arm and is extremely accurate (completed 64 percent of passes each of last three seasons). He makes plays with his feet and is durable (missed one game in three years as starter). The Packers have a solid group of receivers and should continue to be a pass-first team offensively.

Rodgers is our top rated fantasy quarterback. He does it all - throws for a ton of yards, piles up the touchdowns and even gets decent rushing totals. Plus, he is so consistent throughout the season, which is a huge asset for fantasy teams. He is in the prime of his career in a great offense for quarterbacks. You can't do too much better than Rodgers. He'll throw for 4,000-plus yards and score around 35 touchdowns while running for 300 or so yards. |

| Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers was critical of the effort exhibited by some players during the Pro Bowl. However, New England Patriots OG Logan Mankins said he doubts there's a realistic way to ramp up competitiveness. 'I don't know how you fix it,' Mankins said. 'You're going to give a little effort, but you're not going to get out of control. Some guys are free agents over there. You get hurt in a Pro Bowl and it's going to affect that contract with another team. Who would want to get hurt in a Pro Bowl and not be able to play the next season?' |

| Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers said he believes the team will add some defensive pieces, namely a pass rusher or defensive back, through free agency or in the NFL Draft. 'We haven't really been a big free agent team. That being said, I think there's a good possibility that we might go out and get somebody on the defensive side of the ball, or as we've done in the past, use one of our top draft picks to pick maybe an outside rusher or maybe a defensive back,' Rodgers said. |
