WindyCity Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Solid number choices. 49 is a hideous number, but I am sure he will change when something opens up. The Bears should really "un-retire" some numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WindyCity Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Someone please take 55 away from Grasu. Wasting a sick LB number on a soon to be cut center sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jumbo Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 I wanted Floyd to take 48 because his college number was 84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a number. If it was me I’d want a number I could make people remember all on my own anyway. I wouldn’t want to be the LB coming to the Chicago Bears wearing Lance Briggs’ jersey. I’d want a number that 15 years from now is one people only associate with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's disrespectful are not being able to retire the numbers that deserve it (55, 54, 23) because there are already too many and retiring anymore would be impossible. Remember, Singletary's, Dent's and Hampton's numbers aren't retired yet due to this issue. EDIT: I googled the idea and someone wrote an article about it a few backs back on WCG.

I doubt their ancestors will even know tbh ancestor - a person, typically one more remote than a grandparent, from whom one is descended Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
