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.

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.

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.

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

[KI Skins Fan]

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.

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

Hmm interesting, I thought it would be opposite. It would be awesome if both players could play both positions though.

Yeah, I would have thought the same thing too... Oh well, I guess Matt Bowen was right then.

Bottom of what ticker? And thats odd. I see Phillip as a SS and Rambo as a FS. Then again the Giants play Antre Rolle who is the better athlete/cover guy at SS and Kenny Phillips at FS

NFL Network. This is what I pictured as well when we drafted them.
