No complaints overall here! I like 11 for Thornton. Love 69 for Strange.

35 for Strong is a little clunky but oh well.

 

[BradytoMosstoGronk]

69 and strange.

 

[jah]

I bet Strong is gonna take 28 in September.

 

[PatsFan2]

Really wanted 88 for Thornton so 11 it is.

28 > 35 imo

 

[Guts]

11 should never be worn again

Why are guys avoiding 88 and 80?

 

[Joey007]

Why are guys avoiding 88 and 80?

80 numbers just aren’t popular for WR’s anymore

Why are guys avoiding 88 and 80?

Two awesome players wore them Glenn is my favorite WR he was so talented.

 

[catent]

I love the look of 80s on WRs, particularly 81, 84, 88.

You left the Patriots very own **** Shiner off the list of 11's lol

28 is off the table this season

That's how they've honored certain players, sort of "retiring" their number but just for one season.

 

[Triumph]

80 numbers just aren’t popular for WR’s anymore

80 - Jerry Rice and Rod Smith

88 - Marvin Harrison and Lynn Swann
