Brett Favre believes the Green Bay Packers sent Aaron Rodgers a “disrespect message” last week in the NFL draft.
Favre can empathize with the uncertain future Rodgers now faces. He was the Packers' quarterback in 2005 when former general manager Ted Thompson drafted Rodgers with the 24th overall pick, starting the clock on Favre’s eventual departure from the Packers three years later. Favre said Thompson did not inform him of his decision before drafting Rodgers, similar to how general manager Brian Gutekunst did not inform Rodgers before drafting Love.
Favre said he spoke with Rodgers since the draft, though the only piece of the conversation he shared was that Rodgers was “surprised” with the pick. He said he wasn’t surprised Rodgers congratulated Love directly one day after the first round.“I can guarantee you this,” Favre said, “and I don’t know this for certain, but I guarantee you it’s got the wheels turning in Aaron’s mind.
