“There are those people who are in your corner no matter what, you can’t do any wrong, even when you do wrong. And then there are those people that no matter what you do they’re going to dislike you and that’s not going to change.” – Brett Favre #DraftEve #MMO pic.twitter.com/6bCE9SxqI6

Let it not be said Baker Mayfield doesn’t know his NFL draft history.

In the 1991 NFL Draft, Brett Favre took the call advising him that the Falcons had made him a second-round draft pick while lounging on his bed, family surrounding him and resplendent in jorts, a 90s favorite.

On the night before the 2018 Draft, the Sooners quarterback — whom Steve Serby has going to the Jets with the No. 3 pick in his final mock draft — recreated the photo, jorts included.
