to be fair, at the start of this conversation he hadn't any punts blocked at all.


To be fair, the start of this conversation is you brought up 3-step punt and you said he had at least two blocked punt.

 

However, the first “blocked” punt in this game is officially counted as a 27 yard punt and the play is disrupted by an unblocked rusher. See the video I just posted.

Kay. Doesn't matter. Haacks didn't matter either. It's fine.

Don't bother.  The unblocked rusher and the bad snap are all on Araiza.

18 pages for a 6th round punter … amazing

 

Remember that guy? Williams something, I think. Might have started with an “M”?

 

But THIS guy can PUNT!   

 

EDIT: Punting = not something we do often, but very important to do it faster than I can go up and get a beer!!!

why would Baltimore draft the 2nd best punter 50 positions earlier than Araiza and Tampa Bay the 3rd best punter 47 spots earlier?

 

Something else to consider, Araiza is great at kickoffs and can handle field goals and PAT's if our kicker was to ever sustain an injury during a game. Another luxury most teams do not have.

Araiza may have the strongest leg, but lacks holding experience which I guess they may have valued more.
