KC Chiefs Best Fourth Round Picks of All-Time | Number 9: Greg Favors

Greg Favors is the first player on this list to have played in 100 career games by totaling 101 games with the KC Chiefs, Tennessee Titans, Buffalo Bills, Carolina Panthers and Jacksonville Jaguars. Although Favors was not an elite player, he still managed to have some productive seasons.

In his second year in the league, Favors recorded one sack in the Titans Super Bowl loss that year.Following this season, Favors had four seasons in his career where he started more than 10 games. In the first two of these seasons as a member of the Titans, Favors recorded a total of 60 tackles and seven sacks in 32 starts as an outside linebacker.

His third season with 10 or more starts came in 2003 with the Panthers. In 12 starts as an outside linebacker, Favors recorded 55 tackles. In his final such season with over 10 starts, he transitioned to defensive end with the Jaguars in 2004.

Favors recorded five and half sacks that year along with 28 tackles in his 11 starts. After playing in only one game with the Jaguars, Favors retired at the end of the 2005 season. Over the course of his career with five teams in eight seasons, Favors totaled 14.5 sacks and 160 tackles.

Much like Parker, Favors longevity speaks volume of his value.
