Tasked but couldn't hold the spot... Which is why this guy was signed... There have been plenty of rookies that hold their spots... Rookies will struggle but Griffin was that bad... Can't afford to have a game like that last week at this position...
Agree with everything you just said... He wasn't ready to start... Would you agree? That's all I am saying, which is why something different needed to happen this week...
I refuse to get excited about a punter. I wanted Crosby from the Ducks who can play tackle or guard. If this was a few years back and we had great depth, yes, draft a punter. We need depth, not a feel good story at linebacker and a punter who i could really give a crap about. (Pro tip....if we move ball,we dont need a punter)
If you're old school and think we just gotta run the ball, why would you hate this draft when we got the best blocking TE and most productive RB? Pretty much the whole off-season was focused on the running game.Eh,Im old school.I could give a rats ass about punter. Fuck the kickers, gotta run ball. Personally think this was worst draft ever. Will revisit at end of year.
I know plenty about football, thank you for explaining to me about field position though ....just felt like we had bigger needs than a punter in 5 th round. Never said he couldn't kick.
One thing i have noticed in my MANY years of watching the NFL you can't underestimate the value of a top flight punter. With out Dickson's punts i think the score is worse than just a 3 point lose. He helped keep the hawks in the Game big time. In my Eyes he was a solid choice in the 5th round if he continues to play at this level.
So you say you know plenty about football right after proclaiming a 4 month old draft class as the worst ever after 1 game....um, ok!I know plenty about football, thank you for explaining to me about field position though ....just felt like we had bigger needs than a punter in 5 th round. Never said he couldn't kick.
What's wrong with having perhaps the league's best punter? And don't give me this crap about what else we could have done with a 5th round pick. You aren't solving the world with 1 mid round draft pick.Yes i am....but we have a punter for years to come!!!!!!!!!Awesome!!!!!!!!

You're right, i was just thinking it would be nice to build some depth in case of injuries. But what do I know. No one ever makes it past round 4 in the NFL. I mean you 2 probably have "12" jerseys on as we speak, so of course you guys know your stuff!
Thanks....You are one dumb fuck
