Steelers give out numbers to the draft class.

There are a good 4-5 guys wearing 80s who are unlikely to make the team, so I wonder if one of the rookies will change numbers before the season starts. It'll be weird for a small receiver wearing 19 compared to the physical presence that JuJu brought. I don't like 14 for Pickens (can't erase Limas Sweed from my mind). Tough to see a guy wearing 83 as well.

Pickens likes 1. A few more didn't get the numbers they desired you could be right. I wouldn't go buying any jerseys just yet.

When it comes to college football, 1 usually means something whether it is the best leader, hardest worker, or best player. I still view 1 as a kicker number in the NFL, but I kind of have that mindset that if a player wants to wear 1 in the NFL, they must think very highly of themselves. Make them earn it.

I hope Leal does great with the 98, but it sure would have been great to see J. Davis wearing Big Snack's jersey

I'm just wondering if they will reserve #7 similar to how #12 is being reserved ?

I'd think yes.




Salute the nation

Pickett gets #8? I am shocked at the disrespect shown Tommy Maddox. I'm so mad I may wind up dumping the trash can on my lawn.

Wow, you remember what number Limas Sweed wore!?!?

 

[Hypocycloids]

The Steelers unconsciously gave 8 to Pickett.

His hand size must still be in their heads.

Ol girl has that number ability. Crazy what she remembers. I still remember German numbers from childhood .. I think that plays into why I can't remember numbers even current ones without repeating them over and over again. At least that is my excuse.

It's been unofficially retired since Gary Anderson left.
