Thursday night, the first round of the NFL draft goes down from Dallas and there are a number of quarterbacks that are hoping to hear their name called.

One of those quarterbacks is Baker Mayfield. The Oklahoma product played his way into the top ten discussion this season and ahead of the draft, he recreated the incredible Brett Favre draft day photo.

“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

Pure brilliance and what makes the recreation of Favre's picture that much better is that he actually responded to it on Twitter with this gem of a reply:

Good luck tonight....and remember to send my Jorts back tomorrow.

Unlike Favre, Mayfield won't be drafted in the second round and based on the latest reports, he could actually be the first overall pick.

It's my feeling, barring any unexpected new info or proposals surfacing & based off multiple conversations I've had on & off the record up through the crack of dawn this am, that the #Browns have settled on Okla QB Baker Mayfield for the #1 pick in the #NFL Draft tonight at 8pm.
