Zack Davidson for punter

[JP51]

I think they bring Robbins back... for better or worse if our guy is out...  I havent heard a report... but props for him sucking it up with a brace on and holding for the FG...  

[MrEpsYtown]

Was it Ryan Stonehouse who was at the tryout with Johnston? He probably makes sense to bring back for a tryout.

I’ve never seen a team lose a Super Bowl using a tight end at punter

 

ive seen a ton lose it with a punter punting 

 

Those statements just closed the deal for me. I'm sold!!

At this point, why not? The only real issue would be holding on FGs.

Mitchell Trubisky needs to start earning his keep...

Yes. He had a gruesome injury.

[BigAl2526]

Can he hold for the place kicker?

You sir are correct 😂 ZD is a great athlete.. emergency punter in PS and did a nice job. But there are guys who have been doing it for a living ( or are trying). meanwhile I am guessing that ZD has been trying to get back in as a TE 🤷🏻‍♂️

Rodrigo Blankenship is kn TikTok smashing FG from 55-64 yards out. I say we call him. Prater could probably hold.

And who punts?

Him along with Matthew Hayball. Stonehouse always had a leg but he got blocked 2x last year and he doesn't have a great net average for as long as his punts go.

Id like to see us address K and/or P with our late round picks this year. Were a tough team to Crack as a bottom of the roster draft pick. If we can upgrade a majorly important position with essentially a draft flyer level pick, its a no brainer.

 

Its mind boggling how their arent 32 awesome kickers rostered, and overflowing quantities on the shelves in Free Agency! There's 134 FBS teams, and its not uncommon of a kicker to play 15+ years! 

 

The math doesn't math to me

Because he has a monster leg and is more athletic than any punter in the league.

I went back and looked at his averages in College and they were 42 yards on average, not including his net. That’s not gonna get it done in the NFL unless everyone of his punts is getting fair caught 

 

Did you miss his 62 yarder ?? He's much stronger now than college

Johnston’s best plays have come as a special teams public service video for what to avoid doing.  His punting hasn’t been very good.  Tough guy and I admire the effort after what looked like a pretty gruesome knee injury - but he hasn’t really justified the switch at punter.

I can’t tell if you’re serious or not. You once wanted to trade Mario Williams for John Skelton so this isn’t even your craziest idea. 
 

Davidson had some success as a Division 2 punter. There are dozens of guys, more qualified than him to do the job. Obviously the Bills should replace Johnston will the most qualified, and best, guy.

He hasn't but I give him a ton of credit for toughing it out Sunday.  Even the original punt where he got hurt.... he knew as he dropped that ball "I'm getting lit up here" and he didn't take his eyes off it and he went through with the kick. Classic stubborn Australian toughness. And coming out to hold (then having to do anything but a routine catch and hold with Reid's struggles) with a torn knee and a brace.... kudos sir. Warrior.

What fun would that be? How boring.
