Guess the Rookie Numbers!

[quasi23]

Not sure why I like doing this, but for some reason I do... Here we go:

Cryus Jones - CB
College: Wore number 5 at Alabama.
2016 Pats Number Prediction: 25 - currently unassigned and would look ok on the little guy.
Last worn in regular season by: The Immortal Tarrel Brown

Jacoby Brissett - QB
College: Wore 12 at NC State and 12 and 17 at Florida
2016 Pats Prediction: 2 - He can't have his preferred 12, maybe he'll just request the "2"
Last worn in regular season by: Doug Flutie

Joe Thuney - OL
College: 54
2016 Pats Prediction: 62
Last worn in regular season by: Ryan Wendell. Similar to Wendell, he'll play all over the line.

Malcolm Mitchell - WR
College: 26
2016 Pats Prediction: 13 assuming he's not superstitious.. All the numbers in the 80's are assigned and 13 is half of 26.
Last worn in regular season by: Ken Walter? Not much history for this number.

Ted Karras - OL
College: 69
2016 Pats Prediction: 72 He'll share the number Free Agent DE Frank Kearse until someone gets cut and it frees up space

Devin Lucien - WR
College: 15
2016 Pats Prediction: 81
Last Worn by Tim Wright

Kamu Grugier-Hill - LB
College: 32
2016 Pats Prediction: 48 - the random "Here kid, we don't have anything else for you. If you make the club we'll see about getting you a proper number" It also works if he's playing the hybrid LB/S spot that people envision him at.
Last Worn by Long Snapper Danny Aiken

Elandon Roberts - LB
College: 44
2016 Pats Prediction: 51 - only traditional LB number currently unassigned
Last Worn By Jared Mayo :-(


Vincent Valentine - DL
College: 98
2016 Pats Prediction: 99 if they think he will make the team.
75 if they think he's the second coming of Bog Vince.
or most likely sharing 74 shared with fellow training camp fodder Keavon Milton

 

[jah]

R2 Jones - 25
R3 Thuney - 62
R3 Brissett - 2
R3 Valentine - 99
R4 Mitchell - 13
R6 Grugier-Hill - 31 (he was taken as a safety)
R6 Roberts - 48 (don't think they'll give away 51 yet if they didn't already to a vet)
R6 Karras - 70 (Vellano is a more likely cut than Kearse in my opinion so rather double his number)
R7 Lucien - 19

If Dobson is cut....please don't let Mitchell or Lucien choose 17...

Unless Dobson is cut in the next week or so, or one of them wants the number real bad in September (why?????), I don't think there's much to worry about.

 

[Joey007]

40 numbers are actually starting to become more normal for LB's.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Mitchell needs a tight number ... 88 ... give 89 to Clay Harbor.

Jones also needs a tight number ... 27 is very tight ... 24 is tight enough.

 

[TBR]

31 for Cyrus Jones

 

[203Pat]

I heard Jacoby negotiated with Brady for the number 12.

Jones also needs a tight number ... 27 is very tight ... 24 is tight enough.

89 is retired.

 

[Wheelman]

Cyrus Jones - 5 interceptions, 89 passes defended

Joe Thuney - 19 game starter at Guard

Vicent Valentine - Holds his line consistently against double teams and is able to generate pass rush when single blocked, 2.5 sacks, 6 pressures

Jacoby Briskett - Inactive for 17 games. Sleeps with 6 Patriots cheerleaders, including a foursome with 3 of them at the same time. Also in one game uses the same bathroom McNally used to take a piss and has a 90 second quickie with one of the cheerleaders in that bathroom. Steps out of the bathroom and says "Thanks for helping to deflate my balls" to the cheerleader who gives him a wink.

Malcolm Mitchell, 1100 yards - 8 TD's, 5 40+ yard catches, 25 20+ yard catches

Kamu Grugier-Hill, follows in the footsteps of Brandon King and is 3rd in special teams tackles behind Slater and King. Forces one fumble and recovers it.

Elandon Roberts - Back up LB who plays on run downs, 46 tackles

Ted Karras - Cut, signed to practice squad

Devin Lucien - Cut, signed to practice squad

D.J Foster - 3rd down back as Dion Lewis starts on PUP, grabs 4 touchdown passes and is inactive for the rest of the season as Dion Lewis returns.

Everyone else I don't know about is cut or signed to practice squad.

 

[IcyPatriot]

89 is retired.

Okay screw Clay Harbor ... take 88 from him - way too good a number for a JAG.

Okay screw Clay Harbor ... take 88 from him - way too good a number for a JAG.

Maybe on other teams...last 88s on this squad I remember: Scott Chandler, Sam Aiken, Christian Fauria, Terry Glenn.

[jah]

Cyrus Jones will wear #24 confirmed

Mitchell has 19, also.

 

[IcyPatriot]

99 is a very tight number ...

62 ... not so much.

 

[scott99]

Cyrus Jones will wear #24 confirmed

Wasn't that Smelvin's number ?

 

[Bourne Again Christian]

It was

 

[Joey007]

I like Cyrus wearing 24.

As for Mitchell wearing 19, I just hope he doesn't end up like the last two 19's (Lafell and Tate)

 

[varjao]

Mitchell has 19, also.

Bust.

Receivers with numbers in the 10-20 doesnt work unless they were QBs.
