What Jersey Number Will Moreno Get?

[TXBRONC]

He as well several other players haven't been assigned a jersey number. Which one should he get? He obviously wont get #24.

I thought that was going to be Tommy B's.:D (I kid!I kid!)

Running backs can wear a quarterback's number and even if they could it's retired.

23 is taken by Renaldo Hill

I'm thinking Moreno will bring back 27 or he'll wear 30.......maybe 34.

Those are the numbers I think Knowshon Moreno would look good with :cool:

Thanks! Like I said, I am not sure who wears what number. I guess I could get my lazy rearend and check at BM before I speak!:D


I wouldn't have a problem with Moreno taking 30 and Smith taking 27, but before I go any further let me go and see who has what number!!


-edit- Here's a list!

With respect to Darrent Williams.....I'm surprised that #27 seems to be an unofficially retired number. Sure you pay respect to DWill, but retire the damn number if you really want to give him that much respect...

I want to see somebody wear 27 this season. I hope it's Knowshon Moreno.

[NightTrainLayne]

Could be #74 for all I care. . .the only numbers I'm worried about are TD's and yards.

[TXBRONC]

38 WTF???

I wouldn't really like it....but we will see.

I think it's great running back number, and Mike Anderson wore it.

True! I don't want this to be a DW thread, but it was a tragedy what happened, but he didn't do anything in football to warrant the retirement of his jersey and same could be said with Nash!!

Moreno would look good with 30 and I sure TD would approve!!

i think moreno would look good in 27 too. doesnt larry johnson wear 27? the higher you get in the 30's it doesnt look as good. plus the 30's make you look slow.

i kinda wish champ wore a differant number now. moreno looked damn good in 24.

[xzn]

TD, Herchell Walker and Knowshon. All from UGA.

TD = 30
Herchell = 34
Knowshon (in college) = 24

Champ Bailey, also a Bulldog, is of course 24, so he can't keep his college number.

Combine his college number with TDs and you get Herchell Walker and Knowshon's new number...

34

good point. moreno might want to do that. plus it seems he might have a bond with walker after his precombine interview with walker.

i still think a number in the 20's looks better for rb's

[broncohead]

Who is wearing 22? That would be a good number.

Moreno is lucky that Josh Bell changed his number from 34 to 25.

I still think it would be AWESOME if Moreno wore 27 or 30. Hopefully we should find out soon...

[TXBRONC]

Who is wearing 22? That would be a good number.

That's Hillis' number.

[Snowgoose77]

Who is wearing 22? That would be a good number.

22 belongs to Hillis and he better be here next year. Not many to choose from after checking out the roster. 27 wouldn't be bad. How about 33? Off the top of my head the only Denver back I can remember wearing that number is Gene Lang. :beer:

[CoachChaz]

I like 28

[getlynched47]

I like 28

Buckhalter has it...

[TXBRONC]

#32 wouldn't be bad either.

[CoachChaz]

Buckhalter has it...

Forgot. I'll go with 34 then

[JKcatch724]

Moreno can pay somebody (other than probably Champ) for just about any number he wants. I bet he goes 23 or 27.

[getlynched47]

#32 wouldn't be bad either.

Lamont Jordan took it.

Usually a rookie is given their jersey number before they sign a contract...and the high-profile rookies (1st & 2nd rounders) are stuck with the number they are given because jersey's start selling with their name and given number.

They can change their number, but then they have to buy back ALL of the jerseys with the original number from the dealers....

So basically from the pool of numbers, Moreno can choose from:

27
30
33
(Note: 34 is no longer an option, because Andrew Pinnock has it. The only way Moreno gets the number is if Pinnock is cut before he's assigned a jersey number)
37
38
41
43
44
45
47
48
49

Those are basically the choices that Moreno has, UNLESS one of the guys who holds a number in between 20-49 gets cuts BEFORE Moreno is assigned a number....or if he can take a number from a vet...which is highly unlikely.

[underrated29]

I like 34 too. If he takes it in know he will be a stud. Not that he isnt already as like many of you i was calling him for us to draft. But eddie took 19 which is what i wanted so hopefully know does the same at 34.

I like the number 44 but it's retired.

[Magnificent Seven]

# 44? Fyold Little's jersey# 44 is retired.

[honz]

Somebody put a bounty out on Pinnock and get Moreno #34.

[Ravage!!!]

Thats the ONLY way that moreno can get #34? really? Hmmmmm.... I bet there are other ways

[SBboundBRONCOS]

people change numbers after training camp anyway

[Bronco Bully]

I'm actually afraid of buying a Moreno jersey for my son. I have a gut feeling that I'll buy a Moreno (as 34 for example), Champ Bailey is no longer a Bronco a year or two from now, Moreno claims number 24. I can really see this happening lol. Maybe....... Maybe not

[topscribe]

I like the number 44 but it's retired.

I've always liked double numbers for star players. I had 00 in basketball--which
was appropriate since it came close to my stats. :laugh:

Anyway, wouldn't it be a kick someday to be able to retire 33 in honor of one

If you have a doofus like Koudivides wearing Gradishar's #53...there's no way #27 should be retired for Williams. If #27 got retired for anyone it should have been Atwater. Not a slam on Williams, I liked him. Just a fact.

not to mention, it's been worn by such greats as earl campbell, franco harris, thurman thomas, and the incomparable walter payton. . . . that's pretty good company. . .

OTOH, i hated seeing a scrub like mike bell wear TD's number, but i wouldn't mind if moreno took it-- he's another bulldog, and if somebody has to wear #30, IMO it should be someone that can do it proud. . . .

[honz]

Isn't TD's number probably gonna be retired sometime though? I think it should, and if it does happen, it will certainly happen while Knowshon is a Bronco.

[Requiem / The Dagda]

It doesn't ******* matter if Pinnock has 34, he is a ******* scrub and Moreno can "buy" that number from him if he'd like.

i personally think it should, but they've already decided that it's not. . . . bowlen said elway is the standard for retiring numbers, so think 15 year, first ballot HOF career, and in the discussion for G.O.A.T.-- all with denver. . .

Oh, I must have missed that. Nevermind then. I hope Moreno takes #30.

[Requiem / The Dagda]

I want to see him in #34. Bigger numbers are just badass.

[BroncoWave]

I created him on Madden and gave him 34 and it looks pretty damn sweet.

34 has a good history. Walter Payton, Herschel Walker, Knowshon Moreno! :D

[xzn]

If for whatever reason he can't have #34 my next choice is #30.

Knowshon would do TD proud!

I don't think rookies buy numbers from other players.

Vets buy jersey numbers from rookies and first year players. Travis Henry bought #20 from Mike Bell...

Rookies GIVE their numbers to veterans who ask for it most of the time. For example, when TBell came back he grabbed 21 from Rashad Moulton because Moulton was a rookie.

this isn't correct. 1st round draft picks buy numbers all the time. The first round picks are the ones that get the big signing bonuses.... so yes... they buy numbers ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLlll the time. Especially from the lowbies on the depth chart like pinnock.

First round picks get their number before training camp, and get stuck with it. The only way Moreno is getting 34 is if Pinnock is cut before that...which I'm hoping because Pinnock is a waste of a roster spot.

I'm sorry but that is ridiculous if you don't think Moreno will EASILY get #34 from Pinnock if he wants it. Moreno's signing bonus will likely be more money that Pinnock ever makes in his career. Use some common sense instead of demanding that Ravage show you other examples of it happening.

I don't remember anything like that happening often. You want a real example?

Matt Ryan was #12 in college. He came to the NFL and #12 was already taken. Did he BUY that number??? No.........he went to #2 instead.

Common sense? :rolleyes:

That's because Michael Jenkins is an established player for the Falcons and has enough money where he didn't need anything Ryan would offer him. Or maybe Ryan didn't want #12.

But do you REALLY think that if Moreno REALLY wanted that # and he offered Pinnock a good bit of money for it that Pinnock wouldn't give it to him? Pinnock is lucky to be on an NFL roster. If it means appeasing the start first round pick, he'll give him the # in a heartbeat. Like I said, use some common sense. Geez.

Did you read the freaking article I posted? I proved you wrong and you still won't let it go. There is nothing preventing rookies from buying a # off a veteran. Reggie Bush did it, and anyone else could if they had the means and the vet was willing to give it up. Maybe Birdline didn't want to give it up. Maybe Clady refused to pay for the number. Who knows? But the point is, it's not impossible and it has been done before so I don't see why you are still arguing this.

To make room on its roster, the club waived fullback Andrew Pinnock.

Number 34 is now available. It's all yours Moreno :salute:

[dogfish]

I don't see why you are still arguing this.


because some people would rather defend an incorrect opinion to the death than admit being wrong. . .

because some people have nothing better to do with their time than spam up threads with silly arguments. . .

because some people just like to argue for the hell of it-- or because their ego is too big to let it go. . .

because some people are childishly convinced that they are ALWAYS right. . .

because some people believe that getting the last word means that they "won" a debate/discussion. . . .



does that answer your question, or should i go on?

[getlynched47]

Very interesting. Terrell Davis chatting on NFL.com says this:


Q: As a Broncos fan, I truly think your number should be retired. However, would you like to see Knowshon Moreno wear #30, and do you think he has the chance to make an immediate impact in a crowded backfield this season?

Terrell Davis, Analyst, NFL Network
No Paul, I would not like to see him wear No. 30. The reason is I want him to establish his own identity. Unfortunately he won't be able to wear No. 24, Champ Bailey's number. And I don't think he'd want to wear No. 30. I think he is going to make an immediate impact. He's one of three backs in this draft that is going to be starting from day one.

http://chat.nfl.com/front/archived_chat/231

Well then...........27 or 34 it is!! :salute:

[EastCoastBronco]

I say give him #30. If he fills it even half as well as the last guy who wore it our red zone woes are gone...

[2Fity@The303]

Christmas day, 2004. The last gift my wife hands me...I slowly open it up, while doing so, I notice the distinct Denver orange and jersey material...By this time, I'm shredding paper fast, I'm thinking John Lynch alternate, Rod Smith alternate, and begging against a Plummer alternate...Once opened, I hold it up and........................#34..............REUBEN DROUGHNS???? Are you kidding me? Trust me I liked Droughns as much as the next fan, his 04 season was great. But, it would not of been my first choice. Nonetheless, wifey thinking of me, again....End of the day, great gift!

But now, to my point- There is no other fan in the Great city of Denver that wants Know-Know Moreno to pick 34...I'm anxiously awaiting the purchase of a letter/number kit off of Ebay.

Now for that #14 jersey...

[BroncosRockdaRockies]

Maybe he could be the first to wear a 3 digit number since it is so Important. I mean it is just a number.

[NameUsedBefore]

[getlynched47]

No Mike Bell had 20, and then Travis "Coke Head" Henry bought the number from Mike Bell, so Bell switched to 30 and lasted for one season before his ass got cut.

I just brought this up as something different to talk about. For the record what number Moreno wears isn't that big of a deal in my opinion. However, it wouldn't surprise me, shock me, or offend me if he got to wear #30.

Terrell Davis said that he doesn't want Moreno to wear 30 because he wants Moreno to establish his own identity. Let's see if Moreno listens...

Very interesting. Terrell Davis chatting on NFL.com says this:

Well then...........27 or 34 it is!! :salute:

27 was David Burton's # in college so he might want that as well.

Bruton is a peeyamp.

I'm sure Moreno could "buy" the number :rolleyes:

[Ravage!!!]

I'm sure Moreno could "buy" the number :rolleyes:

as we've seen rookies come in and do it many times before, and with the money he'll make as a signing bonus...... damn right he could

[Requiem / The Dagda]

Actually, he could if he wanted to. There have been several instances of that happening, even on the Broncos, where a player gives up some cash to get a number he likes -- which usually is their college number.

Yeah I know. BTB gave me the example of Reggie Bush buying 25 from some scrub veteran McAfee. My only argument was that it doesn't happen very often where a rookie buys a veteran's jersey number.

I would like 31 or 32.

I'm going to step in here and say that the buying numbers argument has been proven to be fact....so drop it already. You asked for an example, you got it...MOVE ON.

Let's not get in trivial bs arguments and act like children. Mmmmmkay.

TD doesn't want him to pick 30 that's for sure. Is 20 taken yet? if not then 27.

20 is Dawkins.

20 is Dawkins.

I own the jersey to prove it :woot:

Jeez no kidding. You're the master of ending ridiculous arguments :D

No time for ridiculous bs. :beer:

Totally forgot about Dawkins.

[EastCoastBronco]

I think the last guy who wore it was Mike Bell before he switched to twenty.

Doesn`t take you guys long to get literal does it...I`ll suffice it to say that everybody caught my drift...

[Nomad]

I've always liked double numbers for star players. I had 00 in basketball--which
was appropriate since it came close to my stats. :laugh:

Anyway, wouldn't it be a kick someday to be able to retire 33 in honor of one
Knowshon Moreno? http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh256/AZDynamics/Smilies/thdrink.gif

I like this idea:2thumbs:! TD wants to have Moreno create his own identity and not many household names at RB have worn 33. Anyway, 33 is easy to remember and creates it's own identity with the BRONCOS as TD has said, has a ring to it, and hasn't been used by every other great RB.
