    I like this he switched from #91 to #95 according to a report I saw. I hope he brings the same nasty attitude as Greg Lloyd and hits like him if he does wear #95. The Steelers defense could use some nastiness Jones and safety Shamarko Thomas will be bringing it in the future.

    Dunno - I wonder if that would risk suggesting too many immediate comparisons with JH?

    Well, considering just about every expert out there has done just that, compare him to JH, I don't think it would change things......

    The comparisons will be there regardless of his number. Not a big deal.

    Yeah, pretty sure LB's have to be in the 50's and 90's.

    True enough. I suppose there is being compared by other people, and then asserting your own comparison by effectively taking the guy's number.

    Just a thought, though. It's not like LBs have a huge number of numbers to pick from, after all.

    Refresh my memory, who had #91? I thought Kevin Greene did. I don't care what # he gets, as long as he gets sacks.

    here's a little article about that. Loved his comment about being happy he dropped in the draft and glad he ended up with the Steelers, he said "at the end of the day those guys are picking early for a reason. I landed right where I want to be."

    Agree 100%....But they did give it to some rook last year. Cant recall who it was. I was outraged than!!

    Let 91 sit at least for a few years.

    THANKS Mr. Smith!

    I was. If Jarvis did make the switch to#95 that shows alot of respect toward Mr. Smith. Class act by the rook!!

    Does anyone know what number Bell is gonna wear? I saw a video of him practicing in number 26. Is that gonna be his number? I was thinking that was a defensive number.
