Allen has played with New England since his rookie year of 2013, is coming off a 2018 season averaging 45.1 yards per 64 punts, which was right along with his solid career average of 45.3 yards a punt.   In 409 career punts, Allen only had two punts blocked.

 

Seems like our punters are inconsistent and we still don't know if we have the right one starting.  Would it make sense to bring this cat in?    Not feeling good about our kicking or punting game at all this year.  Still amazed at how pro teams seem to ignore such a clutch position on draft days.   Justin Tucker best kicker in the game, undrafted, got the Ravens in the playoffs last year.  If Browns had an average FG kicker last year they make the playoffs instead.  

 

Hauschka got us in the playoffs with his bombs two years ago, won us two games with 50+ yarders in the clutch.  

 

My point is if we can upgrade either spot we oughta do so.  Plenty of cap room for some short term deals here.

You contradict yourself.  The guys you mention were undrafted,yet,you lament  NFL teams ignoring kickers in the draft. That being said,with Carter seemingly injury prone...I would like to see Allen

This guy got cut for a reason. The Pats know what they are doing, and know when to move on. There’s gotta be some sort of issue. 

 

Rented Patrick Chung’s Airbnb, forgot the security code and did not get his cleaning deposit back?
