Derek Carr won the Oakland Raiders' starting quarterback job with his poise and has drawn comparisons to one of the NFL's best quarterbacks in Aaron Rodgers.
"He's really calm, really cool in the pocket," James Jones said of Carr, per the San Francisco Chronicle. "He acts like he's been there before. I've been calling him mini A-Rod since he got here."
"He's not your typical rookie," center Stefen Wisniewski added. "He's got an NFL quarterback older brother that's been teaching him for years. He understands defenses at a very advanced level more than most rookies would. I think Derek gets way more prepared than most rookies would be."
