While not inherently a terrible number, this draft class actually did a fantastic job choosing their jersey numbers, resulting in Hester coming in at number eight on this list.

Hester, who more no. 91 in college, decide to roll with a pretty solid number in 90. And while he isn’t a lock to make the roster, the best player currently in the NFL wearing this number is Jason Pierre-Paul, with the best defensive tackle with no. 90 is Malik Jackson. Surprisingly, no player to wear no. 90 has ever been inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Hester has a good chance to carve out a solid and potentially productive role in Oakland if he can build on his quality number choice.
