He was debated as the #1 QB by many before the combine. I say steal. Drew Brees.
Lots of great young talent on that squad now at QB. Great steal for GB as they prepare for the post-Favre era.TBIST said:He's a Packer

Nice pickup by the Pack. 
Sucks to be Aaron Rodgers. He's living in the shadow of Favre and now he's got BB breathing down his neck. It's not like Rodgers is under any pressure to perform...

Brian Brohm to Jordy Nelson. That would be amazing if they became the next Peyton-Marvin.

He was under pressure no matter what the Packers did to address the backup situation. Brohm is going to take some time to learn the playbook.Nice pickup by the Pack.Sucks to be Aaron Rodgers.

Bears are taking one last shot at orton and grossman. They need a RBC guy and offensive line. Da Bears are going to try again for the Superbowl one last try before totally rebuilding. Bears should be getting another Offensive line guy and Def. Line guy as well tomorrow.fsufan said:

Last year Brohm was projected as a top 10 pick and now this year he is picked in the 2nd round after a very good senior season. Unbelievable. Nice job Packers.

They have?Seems like they figured out they need a backup QB and why not take a guy who very well would have been the #1 QB had he come out a year early and ended up falling to them at #56 in this draft.I never believed he's be any good and apparently the Packers have also figured that out.Nice pickup by the Pack.Sucks to be Aaron Rodgers.

There is a reason this franchise's career passing yardage leader played during World War II, in an era when players played both ways and the season was 11 games. The fact that they could possibly look at Orton and Grossman and think, "thank you, may I have another!" is beyond comprehension.

Im a Dolphins fan but this is definitely the most depressing situation in Pro Football.

Plenty of ways to get a backup QB without using a high pick. As you say he could have been the #1 QB last year and teams don't draft a guy like that to be a backup. It will be full-on competition for the starting QB.They have?Seems like they figured out they need a backup QB and why not take a guy who very well would have been the #1 QB had he come out a year early and ended up falling to them at #56 in this draft.I never believed he's going to be any good and apparently the Packers have also figured that out.Nice pickup by the Pack.Sucks to be Aaron Rodgers.

The starting job is Arod's no question. Nothing wrong with bringing in BB to challenge him a bit. Also nothing wrong with getting deeper at the most important position on the team. BB was indeed a steal the Packers had to make when he fell that far. Nice work once again Mr Thompson.

Quick fact...
Rodgers was drafted before McCarthy was in town. The new alpha lion will always kill the baby lions of the former alpha lion.

Yes, absolutely every single time. You can scroll the history of the NFL...National Geographic...San Diego Zoo...etc for confirmation.

If there was a veteran QB that made sense to sign, that would be preferred (CPep?) but they needed a backup and Brohm was easily BPA. Not indicative of a controversy, but Rodgers' leash is shorter now.I don't think that's it at all.I never believed he's be any good and apparently the Packers have also figured that out.Nice pickup by the Pack.

Its a 2nd round pick. At a time where the team does not have any huge glaring holes.I don't think it will be a competition for it this year...next year maybe.Plenty of ways to get a backup QB without using a high pick.

I'm conflicted about the Brohm pick. I think it's a great get for the Packers - a top talent at QB, at a position where they desperately need depth.At the same time, Rodgers already has plenty of pressure on him, so I'm hoping he can put on the blinders and do his thing without looking over his shoulder.Also, hopefully this means the Packers are no longer considering DaunteIts a 2nd round pick.

. As cranky as I envisioned Culpepper to be as a backup, can you imagine how he'd be holding the clipboard as a 3rd stringer? Michael Fox Fan

If Rodgers can't handle the pressure of having Brian Brohm waiting in the wings, then he sure as heck can't handle the pressure of leading GB to a Super Bowl. In which case, this is exactly the right pick. Another superb draft by TT!I'm conflicted about the Brohm pick.

I almost view it as it brings some competition to camp and gives each other something to work towards. Before the draft even started you had Rogers walking into that starting job with no one to push him. Now he will have to bring it if he wants that job now. Nice job Pack
