Ding ding ding!!


41 is an ugly number ... lmao

[QUOTE=CultBrennan59;1007716]well thats why I said that he's needs to change that ugly number, because Madieu Williams, Kareem Moore, and Matt Bowen all wore that number.

42 Is good. Like Matty said thats Ronny Lotts number. Also was Darren Sharpers number.

43 is also a good number with Polamalu wearing it.

44 NOT HAPPENING (Riggo)

45 Ugly number and Mike Sellers wears it

46 Alfred has something to say about that

47 John Lynch did a damn good job in this league. But Cooley fans will go bonkers over it.

48 Bernstein Bear has it now, but if he's cut thats a better number than 41

49 ehh better than 41 but I think 49 is retired for Bobby Mitchell.[/QUOTE]

Jenkins has 47

So did I, best safety I've ever seen. I would rate him slightly higher than Ronnie Lott due to homerism and 12 Pro-bowls vs 10 for Lott.

Scratch off numbers 42 and 43. Redskins Hall of Famer Charley Taylor wore #42. The great Redskins RB Larry Brown wore #43.

I might be mistaken, but I don't think the Redskins have any retired numbers. Instead, there are certain numbers that are not given out in respect for great Redskins players.

Upon further reflection, I seem to recall that there might be one retired number. I think number 33 might be retired in honor of Sammy Baugh, but I'm not sure.

BTW, I thought that Matt Bowen played well when he was with the Redskins.

Re: Official Redskins Off-Season News & Rumors-Part Trois
 

33 is the only retired number. Others are out of the rotation like 28, 44, 81, etc.

Re: Official Redskins Off-Season News & Rumors-Part Trois
 

The Redskins once mistakenly gave out #49 after Bobby Mitchell retired and he was deeply offended by that perceived slight. As far as I know, they haven't made that type of mistake since then.

I agree and I don't think it's homerism. Lott was very good but got a lot of press because his team. Ken Houston just balled.

Ken Houston was a hell of a safety. Had a Hall Of Fame career. The only reason #27 isn't retired is because Houston played for the Oilers years before he came to Washington.

So I saw at the bottom of the ticker that Shanny is envisioning Phillip Thomas as the FS and Bacarri Rambo as the SS.

Amerson already stated that his lame # 39 is only temporary. I knew he would just wait until after camp until one of the 20's open up.

Amerson should wear 24
