It's funny how history repeats itself. Back in 2005, the Green Bay Packers drafted a young quarterback by the name of Aaron Rodgers with the 24th overall pick in spite of the fact that 35-year-old Brett Favre was still under center at the time.

Favre ended up playing three more seasons for the Packers before Rodgers finally took over as the starter in 2008.

Now, here we are in 2020, and Green Bay has selected Utah State signal-caller Jordan Love with the 26th overall pick with a 36-year-old Rodgers at the helm.

Much like Favre back in the day, there have been some questions as to whether or not Rodgers will want to mentor Love.

But Favre doesn't seem to think Rodgers should be tasked with that responsibility:

“It's not Aaron's job to mentor Jordan Love,” Favre said on The Rich Eisen Show. “To me, (the pick) sends the wrong message that they're preparing for the future now.”

It's no surprise that Favre doesn't think Rodgers should help groom Love, because he refused to do it for Rodgers himself a decade-and-a-half ago.

At the same time, Favre makes a good point.

Rodgers is concerned about winning Super Bowls, and the Packers' decision to select a signal-caller with their first-round pick rather than getting Rodgers some help is perplexing.

After all, Green Bay won 13 games and made it all the way to the NFC Championship Game this past season, so it's not like the Packers are that far away from being able to hoist another Lombardi trophy.
