Long made some comments about his possible jersey number...
Quote:
(On his Rams number preference)
I thought about it a little bit. I just really have to talk to my family and see what they want. I couldn’t really care less. I hope that I can make that number worth something. Obviously, my college number, Leonard (little) has it, but that’s in the past. It’s a new chapter in my life and just as I changed my number in college, I will wear a new number here.
(On if it would be a distraction wearing 75 like his dad)
Yeah it would. I think that I am cool with the pressure, but there is no need to shovel it on myself.

Okay, so it sounds as if #75 and #91 are out.
So what's it going to be?
The following numbers I believe are legal for defensive ends and are currently free: 64, 67, 69, 72, 74, 78, 79, 93. The following numbers could be freed up later through cuts: 60 (Leckey), 61 (Raiola), 71 (Petitti), 75 (LeVoir), 92 (Moore), 98 (Ah You). Again though, Long seemed to rule out 75.
Maybe he gives Clifton Ryan a bit of a payoff and takes 95?
