    May #16 become as successful as another HOF 16

    I hope Allar has a better career than a former number 16 we had, Mark Malone.

    I’m surprised they didn’t give Iheanachor #58

    He already has a tattoo

    Or did I dream that

    No way he is getting Jack Lambert's number.

    It was sarcasm

    Another poster made a very ill advised post in this regard previously and was appropriately corrected

    I’ll change it to green font

    Malone beat the '84 49ers who went 15-1 in the regular season and won the Super Bowl.

    Malone won a playoff game vs Raiders in '84.

    If Allar can pull off anything like that... it would be freakin' amazing for a 3rd round pick. Malone was drafted in 1st round of '80 draft.

    I don't think numbers mean much in the grand scheme of things. Tommy Maddox, Kenny Pickett and Aaron Rodgers wore/wear #8. 2 of those QBs won playoff games. :shrug:

    Didn't Mark Malone hold the record for the longest TD catch in Steelers history for a bit?

    Great numbers overall for the Rookie class. Nothing too out of the ordinary given how the NFL allows specific positions to where whatever numbers they want (Jalen Ramsey being 5 for example or DK wearing 4). Just a number of course but would be a bit confusing at first.


    Wishing this incoming class of Rookies the best; doubly so in Iheanachor and Dunker. Prove me wrong!! :herewego:

    Allar may ask for 15 when the season starts, Skowronek currently wears it.
