Man that sure doesn't look right.

Poor guy, I'll be watching him. I believe he will see the field early, so we'll see what he's got from day one.

The NFL is very specific about which positions can wear certain numbers. It is bad news for Ro that he has to be #55 for the Raiders though...

 

[BamaBeta]

Good to see him getting some attention, hate that it is for Oakland.

I have never understood this rule at all. :conf3:

#55 is a great number for a LB.

I agree! Lets start sending some POSITIVE ENERGY to Ro!! I hope he is the KEY to turning the Raider organization around! He will be successful wherever he is!

The new Junior Seau!

How about the new Derrick Thomas, also #55 (at Bama)...

Easy BamaBeta. I Love my Raiders. Hopefully Rolando can help change the failing fortunes of a once great team.

This was this first time in 10 years the Raiders actually had decent draft picks.

The New Rolando McClain. #55.

For some reason, I had an idea without looking at their roster he would get 50 (25 x 2) or 55 (like said - because thats a LB#)...I was leaning more toward 55 because IMO it fits him.

I wish him the best!

Yeah that was my first thought too. Derrick Thomas when he was at Alabama! I think Ro will look great in the silver and black. Let's just hope he can help get them turned around. If anyone can it will be him.

Heck, 55 is my all-time favorite number! I'm glad Ro's gonna be wearing it!

Wow, you hit the wayback button with a "Boz" reference. If Ro records 14 tackles next year, I believe his NFL carrier will have been more successful than Brian Bosworth's.
