In this article, I will be doing the best players for the NFC North but I will not be doing the  offensive or defensive line. These are the players that have been playing in the NFL North last year. Let's go!

Quarterback: Aaron Rodgers, Packers

The NFC North is the weakest division for the QB position, but Rodgers is the best QB in the division. Aaron is a good QB and is expected to do good this year, again.

Backup Quarterback: Kyle Orton, Chicago Bears (Now Denver Broncos)

He is good but he was traded to the Broncos. Kind of good, but remember, the NFC North is the weakest division for that position. Good pick here, though.

Running Back: Adrian Peterson, Minnesota Vikings

You got to be kidding me if you don't put him here! He is one of the best running backs in the NFL. He was also the league's rushing leader as well.

Backup Running Back: Matt Forte, Chicago Bears

Had a great rookie season last year and is expected to do better, this guy is a great pick here.

Wide Receiver #1: Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions

Great receiver! Anyone would like to have him on their team if they could only pick one receiver from their division. If he was any better, he would be on the list of top ten in the NFL!

Wide Receiver #2: Greg Jennings, Green Bay Packers

He is almost as good as Calvin Johnson and is a great player to have on your team. He has soft hands which he proved in throughout his career. I like him here and that is why I picked him at this spot.

Wide Receiver #3: Donald Driver, Green Bay Packers

Yet another Packer, he is one with the speed you need any time you need it. That is all you have to say about this dynamic receiver.

Wide Receiver #4: Bernard Berrian, Minnesota Vikings

The Vikings may not have the greatest passing game, but this guy helps. Soft reliable hands and speed. The only weakness is that he is not a reliable route-runner.
