Understandably, most of these #2s are kickers. Here are the NFL jersey number assignments by position , which have been in affect since 1973: Numbers 1 to 19 are worn by quarterbacks, kickers, and punters . Since 2004, wide receivers are also allowed to wear numbers between 10 and 19 if they so choose, even if there is an 80-89 number available. Numbers 20 to 49 are worn by running ... Read Full Story

View full size photo uploaded June 24, 2009 Ah, yes. #11 for the Kansas City Chiefs . A number that symbolizes the struggle of back up  quarterbacks around the league.

As evidence by the release of second year receiver Will Franklin more than a month ago, Scott Pioli and Todd Haley have zero tolerance for underperforming players or players brought in by Herm Edwards whom they have nothing invested in. Franklin’s release was the result of Scott Pioli stealing a page out of father in law Bill Parcell’s playbook. The play is simple when you take over a team you cannot completely turn over a roster in just one off season so you release a player who appears to be safe to get the players attention and keep them on their toes, soon every ...

The Real Deal laughs at these first round busts. Following up yesterday's discussion about who the all-time best first round pick is by the Chiefs, we now turn toward who is the worst first round pick of all time. This should be fun. I've got a bit of dilemma in getting the poll together though. It's easier to look back at the 1960s and 1970s and pick out the greatest players.  But for someone who did not grow up that era, it's pretty difficult to pick out the first round busts.
