Can't be too wise since they drafted him in the 4th and traded up for him. Couldn't imagine the blowback our fan base would have if this happened to us. "Wise" would not be mentioned.

It would be like us cutting Ambry Thomas right now.

Shoulda drafted a punter in the 4th.

Kyle Shanahan said yesterday the #49ers initial 53-man roster is unlikely to be the same one for Week 1. Good bet they'll look at bringing in another return man and potentially a fourth tight end.

You leave the Boomin' Onion alone—he's actually played well as of late lol.

The pick wasn't wise, but it is wise to recognize when you've made a mistake and move on quickly. Ideally you'd like to get the pick right.

It seems cut day takes an hour or longer past deadline to get the full story.

First, fantastic nickname.

Second, hating the pick is not the same as hating the player. I hated the pick then and still hate the pick. I just will not be convinced that you need to draft punters at all, especially not in the 4th. Most teams don't and still manage to get good, consistent punting. And I really like the safety we could have had.

I like Mitch just fine as punters go. He's better than average. And he can probably make a tackle if he has to.
