Aaron Rodgers has been on the other side of this. He was the heir apparent in 2005 when the Packers drafted him with the 35-year-old Brett Favre still playing well.
The two had a rocky relationship for the three seasons they were together.
Now, the 36-year-old Rodgers has first-round draft choice Jordan Love behind him.
The big question is: How will Rodgers treat Love?
The Packers starting quarterback welcomed Love to town Friday during a phone conversation.
“I was able to talk with him earlier,” Love told Maria Taylor of ABC during the draft broadcast. “Really good guy. Just congratulated me, and I was just letting him know that I was excited to be able to work with him.”
