would the Pats have signed Sauerbrun if they had Gramatica - New England Patriots Forums

Do you think the Pats would have signed Todd Sauerbrun (apology if his name is not spelled correctly) if they had Martin Gramatica as their kicker?

After all, these guys have a bad blood history that goes years back.

I know that Sauerbrun was signed out of necessity, but at the risk of creating drama in the locker room?

well we cut grammatica a loong time ago, so really i dont think we need to speculate - everything kind of worked itself out.

Yes definitely as todd is a punter and gramatica is a kicker.They play different positions.

I don't understand why the kicker would matter in terms of signing a punter or not...

Perhaps because the Pats have a history of using the Punter as the holder for the Kicker? Miller and Walters . (Though they didn't use Sauerbrun the same way)
