Have they been announced for the new acquisitions or any of the draftees?

83? That sucks!
But, does it really matter? No
So, I guess it doesn't suck.

Sales team probably loves this

First player in Blues history to wear the number, so at least there’s that aspect going for him.

As long as the wide receiver number doesn't turn him into a diva we're good.

Is there something wrong with a player or team wanting to sell merch?

Presumably grown-(donkey) men\women on an anonymous message board groaning about player numbers.

Those are all good numbers.

74 and 57 were very weird numbers and they didn't have any trouble selling those like hot cakes for some of our old fan faves.
