Zero Jerseys

Yesterday, the NFL made a rule change that will allow players to wear No. 0 in games beginning in the upcoming 2023 season.

Former Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver, Calvin Ridley, is set to be the first player to wear the No. 0 for the Jacksonville Jaguars this year he announced on social media.

My guess is they don't let anyone take 0 or any other open number until after the draft at this point.  Think that's why none of the new guys have numbers assigned to them yet, at least it doesn't show them on the roster on the team's website.

Only makes sense, we know we're about to draft a QB at #1, no point in letting someone take a number they might want and then make them buy it off them (yes, even though both the guys we're looking at already are taken).

But it would be cool for Corners to take it 0, fits the position.  Too bad we can't have a massive 350 lbs DT take it, would just look funny on them like I've seen some college players do.

Who?

The roster on the team's site doesn't show numbers for any of them, figured that would be the most accurate place for that information.

The roster page is a little slow to update sometimes. Honestly the site in general can be.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
