man I wish shanahan knew how to draft. Like.... at all. Only time they get value is when a Bosa falls to them or when they get to the 5th round. A punter in the 4th? Bunch of ass clowns.

Maybe save this 'hot take' for when he isn't booming 70+ yard punts.

No doubt, 4th round been sus compared to 5th round for whatever reason. That being said, anyone criticizing this as BUST doesn't make them seem like they are even watching. This is an all pro punt and some.

4th & 6 at SF 12(10:52 - 4th) M.Wishnowsky punts 75 yards to LV 13, Center-T.Pepper, out of bounds.

If he keeps booming 60 yarders and pinning teams inside the 10 he's worth a 4th because that's what the really good punters do. The tackling is a nice bonus. If they call fakes and he puts his rugby skills to use that's a bonus bonus.

He never played pro rugby in his life. Australian Rules Football is nothing like rugby at all.

It's kiiinda alike. Baseball and basketball are nothing alike. Thanks for the correction though. I looked it up and now I know the differences.

He needs to be more consistent. If every game were like last game, all pro for sure. Some games, not so much.

4th round and he's a bust… because you know 4th round is where all the elite players get picked.

We all know that's the 5th round
This guy is solid and I don't care that he was drafted "high". I'm mad about first round busts like Thomas and Foster. Mitch in the 4th is the least of our problems.
Still waiting to see those crazy kicks that make it hard for the returner to catch. That's all I heard about when he was drafted

Very few returners have gone far after catching it. So maybe they are mainly concentrating on the catch rather than running it and hence making the "hard catch". A lot of variables such as wind direction, humidity, altitude, long snapping, turf, temperature, the vibe, confidence, the position of the sun, etc etc but mostly its the vibe.

Don't forget rotation of the earth in that calculation

This is fair. I don't care either way regarding his draft position, but he is our Punter so I support him and wish him well as such. If we're going to dwell on something to be negative about, and I don't care for doing that, then the early round busts of years past are legitimate reasons to be disappointed. If the arrow is pointing up for Mitch then I hope he establishes consistency in that regard.
