KL #17

Pep22 : 5/10/2018 10:13 am : link

I'll try to think of that # with Plax as the 1st thought I conjure up (as opposed to former QB that shall go unnamed)

Hopefully Jerry is cut

JoeyBigBlue : 5/10/2018 10:15 am : link

And Solder gets 77, and Hernandez gets his 76. (Our new Chris Snee)

Nice.. I tried to guess the other day.

Chris684 : 5/10/2018 10:15 am : link

Got the DLs right.

What ar ethe Giants doing with 92? Obviously holding it because of Strahan but any plans to formally retire it? Kind of weird in limbo.

Quick to hand out #90

johnnyb : 5/10/2018 10:18 am : link

Not that JPP's number should be retired.

17, you say?

The Giants aren�t the Yankees. We don�t take a guys number out of circulation just because he had a few good seasons with us.

was thinking Hernandez might take

Andy in Boston : 5/10/2018 10:20 am : link

#65 or #66

You forgot

SirYesSir : 5/10/2018 10:23 am : link

Lorenzo Carter - #59

Rob Carpenter!

Chris in San Diego : 5/10/2018 10:23 am : link

Hope Bark wears #26 well

They gave Tuck�s number away right away too, big deal

est1986 : 5/10/2018 10:24 am : link

#10 will be a different story

What the hell are they waiting for

Hernandez will make us forget white Osi

Moondawg : 5/10/2018 10:44 am : link

and #26 will be forever tied to Barkley at the end of the day.

we will probably have our new trio of Dave Brown, Danny Kennal, and Kent Graham woohoo.

Jpp could possibly be in the ring of honor

Tuckrule : 5/10/2018 10:50 am : link

He did help us win a Super Bowl and had one of the greatest seasons I. Giant history for a defensive player.

Strahans number should be retired and never worn again

Jeff Rutledge was a great backup.

Football teams can�t really afford to retire numbers

mfsd : 5/10/2018 10:57 am : link

That�s why the Giants essentially stopped after LT and Simms and went with the ring of honor instead.

Soon enough they�d have guys wearing #s in the 100s.

Damn you, jvm

Greg from LI : 5/10/2018 11:03 am : link

You beat me to the Jeff Rutledge joke

It might sound dumb

Jay on the Island : 5/10/2018 11:55 am : link

But I don't like 71 for Hernandez. Hopefully Jerry will be beat out in camp for a backup spot and Hernandez will take 77.

I thought they weren't going to retire numbers any more.

Gman11 : 5/10/2018 12:27 pm : link

That's what the Ring of Honor was for - to honor the player without retiring the number. Is that true or did I just make that up?

No, it doesn't sound dumb to me. I don't like it, either. Somehow it just doesn't seem right for a guy like Hernandez.

he can wear #171

BCD : 5/10/2018 1:10 pm : link

as long as he's opening up holes for Bark....

Go to hexidecimal

BobOnLI : 5/10/2018 1:49 pm : link

256 rather than 100.

#17 is a horrible fucking number

SHO'NUFF : 5/10/2018 2:13 pm : link

for Lauletta. Just for that alone, I give the edge to #5.

The original #26

Lol yeah.

Dave Brown

Is gonna make me biased against Lauleta now.

Quick

Nomad Crow on the Madison : 5/10/2018 4:59 pm : link

Name a successful QB in the NFL (not named Meredith) who wore #17. Why do they use that scurrilous number for a QB?

I remember wearing a #17 David Brown jersey to school

bceagle05 : 5/10/2018 5:04 pm : link

as a child and getting ridiculed mercilessly, even by girls in class who barely watched football - that's how notorious his suckitude was. It was a gift from my aunt and uncle that was never worn again.

How about Carter?

Nomad Crow on the Madison : 5/10/2018 5:06 pm : link

What number did Lorenzo get?

Just retire his number minus one digit.

I don't understand why a guy wouldn't go with #12

Go Terps : 5/10/2018 5:28 pm : link

It's got to be the most successful of all the QB numbers, and seems like to logical next step after Eli (10) and Simms (11).
