Aaron Rodgers will only change teams if both he and the Green Bay Packers reach a point where they do not want to continue together, says the team's former executive Andrew Brandt.

Brandt – who was with the Packers when they drafted Rodgers in 2005 at a time Brett Favre was entrenched as the starter – does not believe that situation is imminent.

The debate comes after general manager Brian Gutekunst traded up to take Utah State quarterback Jordan Love in the first round of this year's NFL draft.

Rodgers is 36 but led the Packers to the NFC Championship game last season and has stated his desire to play into his 40s.

Prior to the draft, he also discussed his wish to see out his career in Green Bay, although that goal now looks more uncertain.

There was frustration for Rodgers as the move to land Love was coupled with not picking a single wide receiver despite a historic draft class for that position group.

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots appeared to mutually reach a point where they would be willing to start over prior to his move to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

But Brandt does not think the same situation applies yet for Rodgers and the Packers.

"It doesn't seem like it and obviously his contract goes a few more years," Brandt told Stats Perform about the prospect of Rodgers leaving the team he is synonymous with, as Brady opted to do.

"I think they are still high on him, he is their present. Obviously he is the present and Love is the future.

"But it's the same issue I dealt with 15 years ago when I was hearing from both the Favre camp and the Rodgers camp with the question they both asked me which was, 'When?'

"Favre's camp is asking, 'When are you looking to move me out and bring in Rodgers?' And Rodgers' camp is asking, 'When are you looking to move Brett out and bring me in?'

"You don't have easy answers to that. Maybe it will be different with Jordan Love and Aaron Rodgers, but now there is no time frame. Sometimes these things tend to work themselves out.

"With Tom Brady it just seemed like both sides, the Patriots and Brady, wanted a change. That happened relatively seamlessly because both sides were like, 'OK.'

"Right now it is hard to see the Packers and Rodgers separating, but in a year or two years, who knows?"
