49. . . Green Bay Packers. Aaron Rodgers. 4. player

The Packers collapsed under the talons of the Falcons in the NFC Championship last year. After starting the year slow, the Packers finished strong and ran through the Cowboys en route to Atlanta. Aaron Rodgers was the only reason they were relevant down the stretch. He also has tight end Martellus Bennett as valuable new target. He’s primed for an eventful campaign that looks to be Super Bowl or bust for the Cheeseheads.

3. player. 44. . . Atlanta Falcons. Matt Ryan

Matt Ryan, the 2016 Most Valuable Player, comes in at number four. He still has plenty of weapons around him and the NFC Champion are expected to return to the Super Bowl once again.  However, to expect a repeat performance resembling his remarkable MVP campaign is a stretch. Those numbers are virtually impossible to duplicate. He’s the best quarterback in the NFC, but there are still two quarterbacks in the AFC that are more valuable.
