In his career, mostly spent with the Green Bay Packers, Favre passed for more than 65,000 yards and 464 touchdowns. He’ll be remembered for his courage, durability and his big play ability.

In the fantasy football world, Favre will be remembered as a quarterback who always gave your fantasy team a chance. On any given week, Favre was capable of exploding — even against great defenses. Near the end of his career, Favre had a resurgence and was once again a very sought after fantasy option.

In the 2009 NFL season, the Jets will have a lot of options at quarterback to replace Favre. If they are going to go with a player already under contract, Kellen Clemens would be the front runner. Before acquiring Favre last season, most league experts expected Clemens to get the nod at quarterback.

Outside of Clemens, the Jets could look going young with either Brett Ratliff or Erik Ainge. Ratliff is a 23-year-old QB out of Utah, while Ainge is a 22-year-old QB out of Tennessee. The Jets could also look to the 2009 NFL Draft and pick one of the top quarterback prospects.

A couple of final options are free agency or trade. The Jets traded for Favre last season so they might make another trade to find his replacement.

2. John David Booty, USC
While Booty had an up-and-down career at USC, the he definitely has talent. With USC running a pro offense, he’s ahead of the game in that regard. Look for a team to take him in a middle round of the draft.

3. Colt Brennan, Hawaii
Brennan has struggled since the end of the regular season. His stock is plummeting fast. That said, he’s a talented quarterback and there should be a team out there willing to take a chance on him.

4. Dennis Dixon, Oregon
Dixon was having a great season until he tore his ACL. He hasn’t been able to workout much and probably will be hobbled all the way up until the draft, which will no doubt hurt his stock.

5. Erik Ainge, Tennessee
The nephew of Danny Ainge, Erik Ainge is a very good athlete in his own right. With good size and a decent enough arm, Ainge still has time to turn heads before the 2008 NFL Draft.
