Welcome to your Morning Buzz, rounding up news and views regarding the Green Bay Packers from around the web and here at PackersNews.com.

We'll start with former Packers executive Andrew Brandt likening the Chicago Bulls' treatment of superstar Michael Jordan (as detailed in "The Last Dance") to Green Bay's handling of star quarterbacks Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers within the framework of emphasizing a team concept, and what it means for Rodgers' future.

Brandt writes:

The drafting of Jordan Love in the first round appeared a chess move from scouting and coaching to counter the “Aaron Rodgers and the rest” perception of the team.
