I've never been a fan of wideouts who choose a jersey number outside of 80-89. Weird, I know. I guess I have OCD with that kind of thing. The NFL did make an official change recently to allow WRs to wear numbers between 11-19 if all the eighties numbers were taken up. With more and more tight ends on rosters these days, that was apparently becoming a problem enough for the league to change its policy. I just wish they moved the tight ends out and put them in the 40's or something, like Cooley.
Oh well. Guess I'll have to get over it. Because it doesn't look like that's going to change anytime soon.

Malcolm Kelly, in an interview witrh Larry Michael on Redskins Radio last week made reference to the fact he did not like numbers in the 80's, so it could be he will continue to wear #12. Personally I dont care what number he wears, long as he's productive.
Was great to see the attendance for OTA's was good, the guys apeared to be excited and enthused about getting their work in. The team has worked hard this off-season, and hope their efforts will pay off when the season starts. The good part about the new offense is that they're all on the same level at this point learning together.
