Whenever a player of Brett Favre’s stature retires, it sends shockwaves through the league. For much of his career, Favre was one of the most (if not the most) widely liked and respected players in the league. Simply put, #4 is a legend; an icon, if you will.

Bullz-Eye.com gathered two quarterbacks that are already icons, two that are on their way and one wild card that definitely has the potential to be one someday. BE also lists four signal callers that just missed the cut and reasons why they were omitted.
