It's got to be Rodgers. After Rodgers I'd take Russell Wilson or Andrew Luck.

I would take Aaron Rodgers
OK, what am I missing about Andrew Luck? He had his worst season this year, pretty much from the get go. I actually had him on my fantasy team, and he was key in helping me lose the first four weeks because he sucked so bad. His injury situation is something of a mystery, because either it's his kidney, or something else which no one seems to want to clarify. So why would ANYONE want this guy, with an unpredictable future health situation, for their starting QB? Hell, at least RG3 is healthier than Luck at this point. Not that RG3 is worth anything, but at least he's healthy for the first time in his NFL career.
Bronco's would be awesome with Ben Roethlisberger at the helm.
I'm not a fan of Rothlisburger, but the guy is a tough sonofabitch and I respect him greatly for that. He wouldn't have hesitated to dive on a loose ball in a meaningless game, much less the SB, which is more than I can say about some quarterbacks.
Rodgers
Brees second choice
Assuming one year, if looking for long term, answers would change
I'd take Aaron Rodgers over Sam Bradford, for sure. I think Aaron would probably be my first pick as well. As much as I want to select Cam Newton, it's going to take a little more than just a season of solid play to convince me that he's irreplaceable.
Maybe a more pertinent question would've been: who wouldn't you take in place of your team's current QB.
That would be interesting too.
- Edited
For the Packers, if I couldn't have Rodgers, I would want:
Ben Roethlisberger or Tony Romo if I had to have one guy for one year
or
Russell Wilson long term or even Blake Bortles.
If we could just pick based on what is already on the Packers roster, Brett Hundley would be a very tempting selection for the future.
Broncos fan here - I'll take Rodgers.
Rodgers is the obvious choice, but I sure as heck would have a hard time not taking Roethisberger, everybody that can't spell his name can't tackle him and that's 99% of America. I feel he is far and away the best of the '04 class and at this point in his career is really second only to Brady, I put him on par with Rodgers. Agree or disagree, that's where I'm at today.
Niners fan here and I'd take Cam Newton. We haven't been a pass-heavy team since Steve Young left. And he's kind of like Kaepernick but with talent.
