Thought Bequette and Francis would be opposite. Surprised they're letting someone wear 80 in the regular season. I thought Dennard would change as well. Hightower's probably getting 93 which is tight.

It's a shame #52 isn't free, Hightower looks like he might fit in with the other players who wear that number.

I suppose 93 will do though.

He's waiting to see if 54 becomes available

I mentioned Hightower in #54 in the Waters thread, that's the only good thing that can come from Waters not coming back.

 

[Keyser Söze]

Give him #53, he's much better than Tarp

Would that be the "most" new players to make the team after pre season in a long time?

Wait....Rivera gets #59 and Hightower could be left without a number in the 50s? wat...

59 sucks anyway.

The question I have is simply this ... which numbers are tight.

 

[Froob]

Maybe hightower likes #45 for some reason?

All numbers can be tight... wear a jersey a size too small!

I believe linebackers need to either have a 50 or a 90 number during the regular season.

Some anonymous Wikipedia editor said that Bolden would change to 44, Dennard to 30, and Hightower to 54. Maybe he has a real source, but I think it's probably just speculation. I hope at least the Hightower part is...I want Waters back! :bricks:

 

[102 Pat]

Hightower is now #54!

 

[jefmblrd]

Reiss just tweeted that Hightower is going to be wearing 54! No more Waters I guess.

[Big-T]

Nice, that means my jersey collection can now be the starting linebackers! I wouldn't have got a Hightower jersey if he had a number in the 90s and that pre-season number kept making me think "that safety is huge!".

51, 54, 55...I like that!

 

[jah]

Tight for Hightower.

Loose for Waters.
