Of course, this list would have no worth without Brett Favre himself.

Initially drafted by the Atlanta Falcons in 1991, he struggled mightily before being sent to Green Bay via trade. The rest explains itself: as a Packer, Favre won a Super Bowl title and emerged as one of the most popular players in the league.

After a brief sojourn with retirement, then the New York Jets, then retirement again, he made headlines in 2009 by joining the Minnesota Vikings – his old team's hated archnemesis. He had one of his greatest performances at 40 years old, helping the team reach the NFC Championship Game, before (finally) retiring in 2011.
