The SBR Audio Vault - Packers QB Aaron Rodgers on Sports Business Radio
24 January, 2011 by Brian Berger
Before he was a star QB with the Green Bay Packers, Aaron Rodgers joined us on Sports Business Radio. The conversation took place on our show shortly before the 2005 NFL Draft where Rodgers slid all the way to the 24th pick.
During our conversation Rodgers discusses the process he went through when declaring early for the NFL Draft and the process of selecting an agent.
Rodgers also discusses the adjustment from college kid to pro athlete with a considerable amount of money.
The former Cal star even discussed the types of endorsement deals he'd be open to securing upon turning pro.
Looking back on this conversation, Rodgers has always been a guy with a good head on his shoulders who has surrounded himself with quality people.
He's a mature guy who handled the Brett Favre soap opera with the utmost of class. Its terrific to see him now get his shot on the big stage of Super Bowl XLV.
In hindsight, its amazing that San Francisco (#1 pick) and Oakland (#7 pick) passed on the Bay Area product in the 2005 draft.
