An annual PatsFans tradition . . . get claimed by your rookie binky/binkies here.

As ayjackson once noted, you don't pick binkies. Binkies pick you, so feel free to admit to multiple binkies.

And no, no RLKAG option.
 
I voted for Hutchins. Pulling for the BC kid. Pretty undersized and not ultra athletic but very toolsy. Has a chance at a position of need. Former captain. Has the BOB connection. Should be interesting to watch, will be fun to root for.
 
Raridon
Lomu
Kibble
Arkin
DeGennaro

...sorry, I just had to ...

btw, I thought to qualify for binkie status you had to be no higher than 6th round.
 
Well it has to be Gabe Jacas for me. He was right up there as someone I wanted in the first round. also, I really want someone from a college that had everyone looking to see where it is. Culver-Stockton is in Missouri btw. Kyle Dixon is my other binky.
 
I always go with an UDFA and usually I pick well

Any of the draftees should at least make it on the team this year (or on PS or IR) anyways

I find it interesting that almost all of the 6th and 7th round picks are 24 or 23 years old - unlike the younger top draft picks

This makes a lot of sense in terms of finding guys developed enough to possibly contribute and I wonder if we'll see a continuation of that trend among the undrafted rookies

Yup, that was when we (and society) had more rules.

In that world, I would have chose Crownover.

Jam Miller has a cool name but got to be Raridon for me. Really have high hopes that he could be a top TE.

I think Jam could be much better than his college stats show. Alabama is degrading post-Saban, they went from one of the heaviest rushing attacks to rushing the least in the SEC. Blocking wasn’t great. Jam was still a Saban guy and stuck it out when he could have transferred… shows character.

That said I like UDFA Montgomery also, some good rookie RB’s added.
 
Jacas to me is the primary cousin where I feel like he’ll make an instant impact year one. Maybe Raridon to some lesser extents.

Everyone else is more about depth /long term success.
 
For naming reasons:

Anybody named JACAS, I don't care how they claim you pronounce it

Karon Prunty, as long as it's "Karen" with an "o" sound at the end, like he's going to ask to talk to your manager. (It's probably "Kuhron" or "Kay-ron")

Lomu "Emu"

That wide receiver named Kyle something, because only being one deep at "Kyle" in the WR room is asking for it in a 17 game season. Or 18? I lost track.

edit: also Jam Miller, obviously
 
Jake Rizy- UDFA IOL

But I mean, he’s a long shot
 
I'm excited about Crownover. Can't coach size.
