Bills sign a new punter!! Welcome Cameron Johnston

[billsfan89]

I thought the punting was OK outside of that last 4th quarter punt. But I'm ok with moving on, it's not like Robbins had much of a resume so trying someone else is fine.

Might as well call Moorman at this point.

 

 

…wonder if he’s fast enough to pull off a fake punt still?

What happened to Brad Robbins?  I don't really care who is punting, but the FG unit relies on the punter being the holder and that unit looked smoothe the other night.  Why disrupt it.

 

Probably the right time to do it bc the kicker is new.   And might just be the kicker all season.

There is a potential that this could be an upgrade. Johnston spent three seasons in Philly, and then led the league in punting yards on a bad Texans team. He then had a few injuries that kept him out. If he's recovered, this could be a good move.

Could have signed Matt Araiza last year but noooo

Glad to know this is what our staff came away with from the Ravens game!  Dead last in D but we need a new punter! That will fix it!

I mean we used almost every single draft pick on Defense and massive cap money tied up in it lol

Yeah true.  And we don't know, there might be some great history between Prater, Ferguson and Johnston....Or he might be known as a great all around punter, holder, locker-room guy and beer and wings dude,

The Safeties are an issue, but we sign a punter.  Thats about right for OBD.

[Purplebulldog]

Can he play safety?

[Matt_In_NH]

Hopefully he can do more than 28 yarders

Also signed Prater to the active roster

 

 

What was the move to get Prater onto the active roster? 
 

Robbins for Johnston is 1-for-1.

Just click through and watch it. This guy has a leg.

 

 

I thought I remembered him from OSU

I think that is McDermott's illegitimate love child. Somebody get a bucket hat on him before he burns.

McDermott giving his younger brother a job

I was wrong. They gave him a week.

He was not good.

I don't know if this article is correct, but this could explain why the Bills waited until this week to make a change: 

 

Oftentimes, NFL teams wait until after Week 1 to sign vested veterans, because their contracts are automatically guaranteed if they’re on opening-week rosters.

Great point.

 

I was about to say… why the heck didn’t we identify Robbins as a problem all pre-season and camp and finally make a move now…

I thought he punted poorly vs the Ravens.
