Former Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield recreated Brett Favre’s 1991 bedroom draft photo.

Mayfield shared the photo, along with the original Favre photo, on his Instagram and Twitter accounts ahead of the NFL Draft.

With humor, Favre responded to the NFL hopeful on Twitter.

Mayfield is projected to be a first-round 2018 NFL Draft pick. The former Sooner led Oklahoma to the Rose Bowl and a 12-2 record last season.

The NFL Draft starts Thursday, April 26 at 8 p.m.
