White Linen Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 This year's draft had a rare occurrence. Every player picked on the first night of the draft chose jersey #1. Then some dude in round 7 chose #254 False!! The NFL does not allow 3 digit numbers.
3rdand12 Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 i'm just wondering if the fix might have been in and the Bills tipped EJ off that they were going to draft him before they announced the pick. that, to me, explains how the Bills were able to have his No. 1 jersey ready even before they got on stage. jw an insider playing as one of us common folk are you John. That's the only way you would be privy to such delectables as this fact . Love the Cank ! Its family that make us an interesting if not fun bunch eh? go bills Mind blown. oh jeebus, who is this nanker ? any one taking notes or doing a journal to be hidden in a some caves to be found at a later date. i m kinda busy but .. False!! The NFL does not allow 3 digit numbers. yes they do.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 False!! The NFL does not allow 3 digit numbers. The irony. You of all people should have known the truth about this arcane rule. Triple Threat indeed!
bowery4 Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) Is this Crayonz posting under a new name? I think if it is, he has gone crayonz lite on us. BTW EJ needs one of these < before the 3 so he can do this <3 boobs! Edited July 26, 2013 by bowery4

SBUffalo Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 I always put a lot of stock into what numbers players where. I like 3 on him and I think he could play very well with it. Some numbers just never seem to have good success. I honestly believe there's a connection between the psychology of what numbers people pick and their abilities.

I believe that too...but with Canks' arithmatic Manuel at #1 and Woods at #2 would equal #4 which is Kolb's number...so we have a major problem.

For real haha. I think Woods will be good but I don't like his jersey selection. (I'm not saying a jersey defines a player. SOMEBODY had to be great in that number for it to be considered a good number in the first place. Just saying that it can give you SOME idea. Maybe Woods will make 10 a good number for WRs. Or DeAndre Hopkins).
first_and_ten Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Canks just close thread and end the jabs. The horse is dead. Anyone who opens a thread can close it. Even the owner of Byrd thread. I wish the owner of the byrd thread would close it..although I just posted there
alias Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 hmmm 2b or not 2b.... these are the questions you are bringing us these days? Well played, sir.
The Wiz Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) I never, ever post on this message board anymore... but I logged in special, just for you, because you are really... REALLY... a very special person and I can;t stop laughing. That's his draft jersey. He was picked in the 1st round. That's what most players get when they get picked... a jersey with the number round they were picked in. That's not his number, it never was. Manuel wears number 3,it was in the Buffalo news and EVERY SINGLE PICTURE OF HIM PRACTICING IN MINI CAMP IS HIM WEARING #3.If you're a Bills fan, you know this. If you're a fair weather Bills fan you know this. I think you're confused. Every player in the draft wears the number of the round they were drafted unless the team already has that number taken. It's not until their second year they can pick a different number. Edited July 26, 2013 by The Wiz

Canadian Bills Fan Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Since we are on the topic of jersey numbers.... What good QB's have worn #3? I can only think of Harrington and Kitna and I wouldnt call them good CBF

Jeff George Bobby Hebert Rick Mirer All I've got
Mango Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 I mean, Kolb is 4 and Tuel is 8. WHy not be 12 or 7 like all the other great qb's? i.e. flutie, bledsoe, elway. Should I start a petition? FALSE, he picked # 1. http://www.gannett-c...cfb7b67cdb10c81 not sure whether to post this on r/cringe or r/facepalm?
Delete This Account Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Number certainly is of significance. The fact that he was originally number 1, and has now apparently changed to number 3, clearly shows he is an indecisive flip flopper who lacks the assertiveness and confidence to succeed in this league. and he's clearly dropped down the list at No. 3. not a good sign. jw
SRQ_BillsFan Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 I thought there was a rule that kickers could only be drafted in the 3rd round and always had to wear the number 3. when I see a 3, I still think kicker. Kickers wearing 12, QB's wearing 3, Dogs and cats living in sin....
Beerball Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 This year's draft had a rare occurrence. Every player picked on the first night of the draft chose jersey #1. Then some dude in round 7 chose #254 He's going to get fined every single time he dresses for a game. The NFL doesn't allow numbers above 99.
