 NEW YORK (AP) - Aaron Rodgers entered the NFL to a standing ovation, with hundreds of fans chanting his name.
Sure he had to wait a lot longer than he would have liked to be drafted, but what a reception the California quarterback received when the Green Bay Packers took him with the 24th pick Saturday.
"That meant a lot to me," Rodgers said of the exuberant cheers poured on him by the crowd at the Jacob Javits Center after he patiently waited to be picked, long after the rest of the prospects who attended the draft had gone.
