    Greg Jennings (second-round pick, 52nd overall) – The wide receiver was billed as the guy who would replace the explosive plays of Javon Walker – a claim that many (including yours truly) scoffed at. But he's been arguably Green Bay's biggest playmaker so far, jumping over Robert Ferguson on the depth chart early in the season, then leading all rookie wideouts with an 18.2 yards-per-catch average through five games. He had some eye-opening moments in the preseason, but he'll be immortalized in the Hall of Fame for being the wideout who caught Brett Favre's 400th touchdown pass – a 75-yarder against the Detroit Lions. Jennings already has eight catches for 20 or more yards and two receptions for 40-plus.
