Taking on rehab projects is an Andy thing. Most recently Toney. Reid took on Michael Vick(I don't recall the Karen shit storm, but wow). Sure Vick worked out for him, it was a huge risk. I'd say very Christian move, but that's a shit typhoon

He was an average punter who had one great year. He may have another great year at some point soon but in the end, his 4 year track record shows 3 mediocre years (including his most recent one) and one excellent one. Sure looks like the excellent one is the outlier, no? He's...fine. He's no sort of problem at the position and not a genuine asset either. He's a JAG. He's as replaceable as they get. And for all the "Oh my god, can Araiza hold!?!?" stuff, people were WRECKING Townsends holding until he got one damn high snap down in a SB. He's as likely as not to duff the next one. There's just no reason at all to bemoan the loss of Tommy Townsend and I was hoping they'd let him walk this off-season before we signed Araiza. Not because he's a liability, but because he's just not an asset and we were going to have to pay him as though he were. Townsend is well on his way to being forgotten about. The same as 90% of other punters in the league.

He's legit. He knows his shit. He's the only one of any of them I actually learn from. Seth will show me stuff I occasionally miss because he's good at video clipping and he's articulate. So he'll see something I overlooked and mention it. So he brings things to my attention. Stout, OTOH, will flat out teach me things I didn't know or understand.

This is why I love CP. Where else can I find a 20 page thread on a punter?

I really like AHPKC. They don't do deep play analysis like the Lab, but come up with some pretty good stats, and are just really entertaining and professional imo. I always feel like I'm in good hands with them, whereas I never know when OWG is going to go completely off the rails. |

I like to keep is small so the thread seems bigger. This is not compensating.

Whether you find value in that is the question. I generally find them to be an easy listen. |
