Expand This is my preference. You usually aren’t getting an impact player at that point. Might as well grab a punter.

Just looked it up and it looks like he’s actually a decent place kicker too?! Sign me up. Not looking to replace Bass. But what an asset to know your covered if your kicker goes down. 1 Quote

(About $1m, IIRC.). It’s not huge money, but every penny counts when we’re against the cap. Probably looking at a minimum wage punter next year. The more I think about this, the more aggravating it gets. What did they expect in hiring a hangtime/positional punter? It’s windy here. This isn’t Miami or Phoenix. The weather this year was horrible, and we got what we deserved. What a surprise. Expand My guess is that Beane did due diligence by watching Haack punt in unfriendlier climes and thought he could do the job. But, he couldn't. 1 Quote

Expand If this guy is as good as people think he is, I think he'll be gone before the end of the 4th round. Consider yourself lucky if he's still there at the end of the 3rd. Ray Guy (& Erkslaben (sp?)) were both 1st rounders. On 1/26/2022 at 10:05 PM, Bob Chandler's Hands said: I'd put a 4th rounder on this guy. He's a freak.

Ehhhhhh On 1/26/2022 at 10:01 PM, Special K said: They can grab one in the sixth or seventh round of the draft.

HalftimeAdjustment Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 If Leslie Frazier gets a HC job, we get an extra 3rd this year and next, right? You could use the extra 3rd on him just to be sure and you haven't really lost much. Or, take a risk and trade down into the 4th. Quote

No way are 10 rookies making this team. They will just get raided off the PS again. Beane will package up those puppies and move up in the draft or trade for players.

eball Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 I think it is absolutely hilarious that the Bills have admitted they kept Haack because they didn’t want to mess with Bass’ mojo. New punter is on the way…guaranteed. Quote
Matt_In_NH Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 He takes about 2 minutes to punt. Amazing only one got blocked 1 1 Quote
ControllerOfPlanetX Posted January 26, 2022 Posted January 26, 2022 If we have faith in Josh Allen, we shouldn’t need a punter. Quote

Turbo44 Posted January 27, 2022 Posted January 27, 2022 Predicted to go between the 3rd and 6th round. 51+ average with kicks as long as 86 yards Quote
