Green Bay Packers general manager Ted Thompson won't pass up a worthwhile passer in this weekend's NFL draft.
And if the Packers end up taking a quarterback with the 30th pick in the first round, Thompson said it shouldn't be interpreted as a lack of confidence in new starter Aaron Rodgers.

"If we take a player at any other position, it's no slight on the players that we have at those positions," Thompson said in his pre-draft news conference Monday. "Aaron, he's comfortable in his own skin. He understands the NFL is the NFL."

Rodgers, the Packers' first-round pick in 2005, finally gets his chance to start next season now that Brett Favre has retired -- presumably for good. Thompson said that won't change, even if the Packers draft a quarterback early.

I was just reading about it, and yeah they could use another QB. I mean don't get me wrong Rodgers has yet to prove himself, but they need a reliable back up if not the next farve.

Id be surprised to see them go qb in the first.

They should go for a QB in second or third round

Joe Flacco could still be available on their 2nd pick. Idk how good he is though, I just heard a lot of good stuff about him recently.
