ESPN’s Aaron Schatz and Seth Walder sat down for an impossible task: Building out the best 53-man roster (and practice squad) with NFL players who have suited up since the 2000 season. On Wednesday, they released their full team, including a 17-man practice squad.
Going through the list, the first notable piece of information that Green Bay Packers fans will notice is that Aaron Rodgers failed to make the 53-man roster cut, instead joining Drew Brees on the practice squad. It was Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Patrick Mahomes who made Schatz and Walder’s team, not the former four-time NFL Most Valuable Player.
