******* Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Several teams, including the Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills, have expressed interest in signing veteran free agent punter Marquette King, per source.
YoloinOhio Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Interesting! He was really good for the Raiders Big time “flair” though ...
McBean Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Have an open tryout and bring em all in. Our punters have stunk since Moorman 1
SirAndrew Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) It’s only a matter of time before half the board has a meltdown over King being “too flamboyant” to sign. Admittedly, some of his antics are somewhat humorous to see from a punter, but he is the type of veteran we could use at that position. The stage seems a little too big for Boroquez. At least you know King is confident, and not as likely to fold under pressure. Also, Darr is the worst punter I’ve ever seen at the pro level. I didn’t realize how awful he truly was until I attended a late season game. It was truly shocking to see how terrible he was in person. Edited April 8, 2019 by SirAndrew 3

Buffalo716 Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Only time I ever saw him punt live I was extremely disappointed he didn’t cut it well through our wind

I didn’t pay attention He wasn’t as good as he was during his time in Oakland imo, but he also only played in four games before being placed on IR. He was eventually cut while on IR.

I think he could improve with more reps at New Era Field. It may have been a matter of not knowing how to properly deal with the wind patterns of that stadium. I still think he’s better than Darr and Bojangles. 1

Green Lightning Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I'm thinking about starting a thread on the Bills interest in the punter Marquette King. What do you think? 1 3
YoloinOhio Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 Bills going head to head with Crossman over a punter lol
GunnerBill Posted April 8, 2019 Posted April 8, 2019 I am intrigued by the kid who got injured in camp. Bojo is a guy with a huge leg but not much else. They need to keep looking at the position.
