Haack is terrible. In the rare event when we need to punt it would be great to actually play the field position game and not hang our D out to dry. I wanted to create a place where we could actually look at prospect beyond arguing about what round Araiza is going in. Here's some info, feel free to post links if you have anything to say about the topic!

Three punters were invited to the combine, above is a blurb about punters in the draft this year. 

 

Matt Araiza - SDSU 

https://www.nfl.com/prospects/matt-araiza/32004152-4131-7575-504d-a8b693e6a7b6

 

Jordan Stout - Penn State

Jake Camarda - Georgia

https://www.nfl.com/prospects/jake-camarda/32004341-4d01-3278-6483-bc919efd064d

 

Stout and Araiza are batting for #1. Araiza has the one of the biggest legs ever, Stout has a big leg is supposedly a little more consistent. Camarda is supposed to be the best technician of the three an has solid leg strength but had a down season this year. 

 

Puntalytics is a pretty knowledgeable place to find info about current NLF punters. Heres is what they have to say about this year's FAs, you can click on the tweet to see the rest of the tiers. If it came down to a vet I'd look at Hekker first, then Anger. 

 

 

I'd personally rather just draft Stout and save the money signing a legit punter would cost. Araiza is likely to go in the 3rd-4th and Stout should go sometime after that since people are in love with Araiza's distance. IMO draft Stout in the 5th-6th.

I’m positive. We should have Josh punt.

Bills should propose a rule change to allow backyard football style punts. Long snap to Allen and just let him launch it.

 

Or peg a defender in the back and yell "quickie!" and recover it.

My only issue with big leg punters is they tend to be negated somewhat in buffalo.  It's a windy stadium, and especially windy when you punt it high - you tend to want to punt directionally.  I know buffalo likes to punt directionally towards sidelines to limit returns and its just generally harder to field a punt when its not right to you.

 

Haack sucked though - too many touchbacks, too many shanks and terrible punts.  He could be comfortably in the bottom half of the league and im fine with it, but he was one of if not the worst punter in the NFL last year.

That's why I like Stout a little more for us, he's a bit better at directional punting. I don't know why people turn their noses up at punters, they are legit weapons in controlling field position. 

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a very specific reason to revive this one.
