The Bears have handed out jerseys and numbers . If my assumption is correct the o and d at the end of some players jerseys signify offense and defense and will have to be sorted out later if both players make the squad.
Draft Class:
OT Chris Williams (74)
RB Matt Forte (22)
WR Earl Bennett (85)
DT Marcus Harrison (94)
S Craig Steltz (27)
CB Zackary Bowman (35)
TE Kellen Davis (87)
DE Ervin Baldwin (99)
G Chester Adams (72o)
LB Joey LaRocque (90)
OT Kirk Barton (69)
WR Marcus Monk (19)
Undrafted free agents:
PK Shane Longest (2)
QB Caleb Hanie (12)
WR Curtis Hamilton (14)
QB Nick Hill (17)
CB Leslie Majors (46)
DB Trey Brown (49)
DE Nick Osborn (67)
DE Joe Clermond (72d)
OT Cody Balogh (79o)
DT David Faaeteete (79d).

Really you have to wait
2 years before you can safely buy any offensive player the Bears draft or sign.

Be alittle different to see
Number 87 on a 6’7” guy. But I’ll get used to it.

O/D Numbers
I think the team just runs out of numbers when all the rookies and future practice squad players are in the mix. I think the Bears have most or close to most retired numbers of any team in the league, too

O/D numbers
So if both 72o and 72d make the team, do they have a ultimate fighting cage match to decide who gets the number?

Yes. Which would be exciting...
...except it’s done in speedos and baby oil. Something to bring more women to the team, I heard.
