I was hoping for Andre Woodson. That’s what I get for hoping.
Don’t let me say that as indictment of Matt Flynn. He’s not a player that you’re in love with, but the fact of the matter is, he brings more to the table than Brohm. Athleticism? It goes to Flynn. Arm? It goes to Flynn. Durability? It goes to Flynn. Leadership? It goes to Flynn.
The only thing Brian ...

Kentucy quarterback Andre Woodson has almost become invisible lately. Once one of the top quarterback prospects in this year's draft, Woodson has fallen down draft boards lately after post-season workouts that brought to light concerns about his future in the NFL.

Brian Brohm is undoubtedly a franchise Quarterback, and he’s shaping up to be the steal of the NFL Draft. He can make every throw. Any team that picks Matt Ryan over Brian Brohm has made a bad pick, pure and simple.A first-round mock draft. By Matt Millen*.

This is just a bunch of crap!! ARE YOU SERIOUS??? BRIAN BROHM??!?! I hate this pick with a passion. Brian Brohm was a great college quarterback and will be a good pro. My issue isn’t with Brian Brohm, it’s with Ted Thompson. Aaron Rodgers already had a ton of pressure on him trying to replace Brett Favre

With the first of their three 7th round picks, Green Bay selected their second quarterback of the draft in Matt Flynn from LSU. Flynn will compete against Brian Brohm to see who will backup new starter Aaron Rodgers .

Round 7 brings the homestretch of still 45 more picks as we count down to who will be the lucky man who gets the Mr. Irrelevant parade: Packers still not sure about Aaron Rodgers. I liked Green Bay adding Brian Brohm on Day 1, because it gives the team two pretty good options with whom to replace Brett Favre. But I don't really get the late addition of Matt Flynn. Flynn was a fine ...With The 56th Pick Overall - 2nd Round

The Green Bay Packers select Louisville QB Brian Brohm. What a great pick. The Packers needed depth at quarterback behind QB Aaron Rodgers and it had to be someone with a lot of college experience. The new guy has to be ready to play sooner than later because there is literally no one behind the fragile Rodgers on the depth chart. Brohm could have been a top 10 pick last season, but fell to ...Packers Draft Brian Brohm, Aaron Rodgers Has Been Put on Notice
Posted 4/27/2008 on FanHouse
Heading into Day 1 of the draft, there were plenty of teams in need of starting quarterback help. Green Bay was not one of those teams. Which is why they took Brian Brohm with the 56th overall pick, of course. Obviously, this means that Aaron Rodgers has been put on notice even though, you know, he has yet to start one NFL game. Actually, it has absolutely nothing to do with Rodgers and ...Michigan Men: Dolphins add Henne to Long

Pick number 56. Packers on the clock. Bill Parcells is sitting in the War Room, sweating. His QB, Chad Henne, is still on the board. As is QB Brian Brohm. The Dolphins worked Henne out a ton, paying little attention to Brohm. But the Packers seemed to be leaning QB, and most boards had Henne ahead of Brohm. “With the 56th pick in the 2008 NFL Draft, the Green Bay Packers ...The Green Bay Packers Select: Brian Brohm (QB-Louisville)
Posted 4/27/2008 on The Grand National Championships
Now while Nelson was a pick in a non-need area that I liked? Brohm was a pick in a kind of needy area that I don’t like so much. He made his bones as a Petrino system quarterback. He’s not very mobile, and like our fearless starter, Brohm’s also injury prone. He doesn’t have the greatest arm strength, and has a negative gunslinger Q Rating. He’s got good ...Round Five: John David Booty

The Vikes passed on Brian Brohm in the Second Round (Green Bay selected him), but they traded with ironically, Green Bay to move up from #150 to #137 to select John David Booty. The Vikes traded their seventh-round pick (#209) to move up. Booty is 6’3, 213 pounds from USC. Booty played in the West Coast Offense at USC and he will be a developmental quarterback.

And that would be … we don’t need you, old man, and … we’re not satisfied with you, young man.

Could this spell the end of J. Load?
