No, I don't think so it would take up too many roster spots. You need to save some for other positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping 4 kicker/punters is silly and I'm assuming (hoping) was the OP being funny. No one is keeping even 2 kickers anymore. Speaking of kicking, the Cheaters just signed Nick Folk. Apparently the Nazi kicker they drafted (almost a full round earlier than Bass) has sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bad punt can leave your defense with a short field. A missed 55 yd field goal - no points. This team is ready to win, and winning requires good field position and points. Keep Bass as our long field goal kicker...anything over 50 yards, he comes on the field. Keep Hauschka for the 20-40 yd field goals...he's money. Keep Bojorquez for shorter punts when you need the ball placed inside the 15 yd line or when there's a southeasterly wind at the stadium (to crate a cross wind with his left foot). Keep Edwards for longer punts and drop kicks. He's Australian and they utilize the drop kick a lot in that league. Would be a nice wrinkle for the Bills and can score points. Thoughts? Dick Jauron called, and wants you to stop ripping off his strategy for heroic marches to 7-9.

I guess that onside kick vs the Dolphins last year was something any other player can do? I don't mean to belabor the point, but Micah Hyde's ability to jump up and grab that ball and run in for a score was a perfectly choreographed play that started from the magical foot of Hauschka. There's 6 points off the board if you cut Hauschka. Not to mention, Edwards adding more points on fake punts with a drop kick or two. And Bojo securing perfect field position on many punts. It's called directional punting, and when you can back an offense into their own 5 yard line, you allow your defense to thrive. Yeah, let's cut our best directional, left footed punter and our solid FG/onside kicker because you want an extra CB or safety. When's the last time a CB contributed to points?

Bass/Edwards: Heavy Metal Rock Hauschka/Bojo: Classical Some days you need precision Some days you need to just let it all out. Best to leave all options open on game day.
