Brett Favre just now on The @RichEisenShow said he’s talked to Aaron Rodgers about the Packers’ decision to pick Jordan Love:
“I’m not going to talk about all that we talked," Favre said. "He was, let’s just say surprised, they went that direction.”

“I think he’ll play somewhere else,” Favre told Eisen. “My gut tells me, no. It’s kind of cool – it’s not uncommon to retire and unretire now. When I did it, it was a little bit out of the realm. Now, it’s fairly common, not just in football but in all sports. Tom Brady and myself and Joe Montana and Peyton Manning – just to name a few – finished their career elsewhere. In my case, I played for four different teams. So I think you’re going to see that trend more and more, and I think Aaron will finish somewhere else. That’s my gut.”
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.
