This board is amazing. People now bitching about a punter.

Not sure why we passed on Butler, but there must be something they liked about this guy.

Without the "the FO knows more, canned insult, canned insult" response, explain why you choose someone who isn't as good as other punters available. Genuine question. I'm not the only one posing it.

why would you take a guy that averages 44.2 yards per punt when you can get a guy that averages 42.2?!!?!! shut the hell up man the FO knows what they're doing!

You know man, out of this whole day I think you've been the biggest douche bag. Nobody can even ask a question. Fug off and drop dead.

With, simply put, better punters there, why?

You, I and everyone else here don't know there were better punters available. We'll just have to wait and see. If he sucks, they whiffed on picking a punter. Admittedly, I was hoping for Butler but if they think this kid was the best punter available so be it.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
