Sorry, Tom Brady ... you AIN'T the best quarterback ever -- so says former NFL stud James Jones, who tells TMZ Sports Aaron Rodgers is the G.O.A.T.!
"I think Rodgers is the best quarterback that I've ever seen," Jones says. "Period."
Of course, James is a bit biased ... the 35-year-old ex-receiver played with Rodgers for eight seasons from 2007-2015 -- but he swears he's NEVER seen a QB that tops Aaron.
"If it's a quarterback that can make special throws, and run out of the pocket and make throws on the run, the first guy you compare him to is Aaron Rodgers," Jones says.
