I just read the punter the Bills got was purposely not showcased by New England in preseason in an effort to hide him on the PS, zero preseason punts, so there's that

Right, so how did the Bills know he is worth a starting position without bringing him in first for a workout or even a physical?

Makes sense. But this is an especially curious move, presuming Schmidt gets cut today. The Bills are really taking a big risk, now presumably going into the season opener with a punter they maybe haven't seen in any action since December and even then it was in college.

Yeah. Totally agree. They must really not like what they saw from Schmidt lately, especially because one of his two punts against the Bears was a beaut.

This has to be beyond their desire to get rid of Schmidt. There are several seasoned punters who are available right now. I am guessing they see grabbing Bojorquez as a steal. I sure hope so.

Right. I totally agree with you. The Scouts must love this guy. But again I just think it must be from college tape versus what they may have seen in a Pats practice setting. 

 

I sure hope hope he's good too. Although as you say, if he tanks there are some seasoned vets always available.

Got ourselves a new punter.  I’m happy.  Schmidt is bad

Well... let’s see what happens. I thought we had a new punter when they signed Ryan, but that wasn’t the case. 

 

Plus, I’d like to actually see this kid punt first, and hold for Hauschka... 

 

Its clear they are not happy with CS though.

Schmidt is officially gone. No look-see at the new guy in person first.
