Camarda is only 25, was looking like one of the best young punters, and then had some struggles. He punts and kicks off. He's also super athletic...actually ran a faster 40 than Keon...but who didn't? amirite? 

 

Anyway, there are a few interesting free-agent names if they want to go with an older vet but they can draft one as well. 

No 👎🏽

The blocked punt versus the Rams lost that game for us, not sure if that was on Smiley of for Martin not calling a time out seeing an overload rush, he had no realistic change at that kick.

The blocked punt was due to Ferguson getting ran over

Let's see what our new (very good) ST coordinator can get out of the new, young (very gifted) punter.

This is my take. And ofcourse Tabor is coming from Carolina where he would have had to deal with Camarda multiple tiles during 22 and 23 when Camarda was looking like a dude. 

[Shaw66]

I have to say his slow delivery scared me to death.  He had a lot of kicks last season that came within a whisker of being blocked.  I thought he was living dangerously. 

[MikePJ76]

He is a good holder.  Hopefully it doesn’t affect the place kicking.

Not surprising, he was a pretty bad punter.

 

20th in gross average

27th in net average

T-16th most punts inside the 20

T-11th most touchbacks

 

Had a blocked punt returned for a TD that cost us a game. 

 

Oh, and that was an IMPROVEMENT on his 2023 season. 

 

 

 

The blocked punt was hardly Martin's fault!

Punting is over rated

I think they are seeing how much of a paycut Von is willing to take before making that move. If he stays another year , then retires and they reduce his salary to minimum that would be a huge favor on the future Bills cap.
