| Good hire. Bobby April has been good before. Not sure what happen in Phili but that whole system had been messed up for a while. |

Who would be a better option?
Really him and Dehaven were the two best guys left.
April has recent experience with working with rookie punters/kickers. |

Yea it definitely poured in Philly. Started with the OLine then the defense and so on.

April is one of the better special teams coordinators in the league. You can make the case by saying he was the best in the league a few years ago in Buffalo. I still believe he is.
Let's hope we can add some more pieces & more depth so he can have something to work with unlike his stint in Philly. Our return game should improve with Ford being healthy & the coverage unit should have more depth to work with in comparison to last year.
Having a solid Special Teams is underrated/under appreciated in the NFL.

Great leg no doubt.
He needs to learn not to blast every one 5 yards into the end zone. Doesn't help the team out one bit. If this guy could learn directional punting and how to pull his leg strength back when needed then he'll be great. Otherwise, he's a Lechler lite. I didn't see him drop one within the 5. |

He's young so we'll see. He still has more emotion than almost every punter I've seen also haha

Be careful. Some kid might come in here and add "Dude has MAD swag" or sumthin like that.
