Don't love using a 4th round pick on him but if the dude can consistently pin the ball around the 5 and a legitimate threat on fake punts I'm not going to complain much and I doubt anyone else will.

is he for real?

Kickers and punters have the longest lifespan of any positions. Most come out around 22-24 anyway, so 27 isn't some huge difference if he plays until he's 40+.

Jeremiah said on his board he was the second best.

Why would they be happy? Both Seattle and LA have dominant punters and understand how a weapon like that can change a close game.

I just hope they hit on the picks they have left. Other than Bosa and Debo I am not impressed so far.
Are you effing kidding me

Fortunately kickers play into their 40s...
Drafting a punter in the 4th is the biggest joke ever. Lynch has no idea what he is doing.
Complete waste of a pick.
People justifying a punter in the 4th is hilarious
Ok he does not look normal....that very much looks like some sort of rugby like kicking.

Whats this dudes background?

Rich Eisen and the Network crew got a real goooooood laugh out of this one.
I guess this means we'll be punting a ton

This can matter for potential though although I guess it doesnt all that much since he's a dang punter. Being 27, he's basically in his prime and at his ceiling.
