Default Was Zoltan Mesko worth the draft pick?

When we drafted this kid I assumed he was a sure-fire A+ punter, you'd have to be to even warrant a draft pick being used on your position.

I've not been impressed so far. Hasn't been horrible, but (correct me if I'm wrong, I'm going off what I've seen, haven't broke down the stats) hasn't been fantastic either.

He has had 4 punts in his career!!!

He is 6th in the league for average yardage on the punt! And has only been returned for 11 yards!

I think he is a good punter! Get good distance and hang time, allowing the coverage to get down field!

If there is any kicker you can complain about then its Gostkowski,He has been inconsistent,bordering on simply bad.

I think he is the same guy who has benched Jason Campbell

I think ANYONE is better than Hanson.

Already have complained about Gost, everyone called me crazy about that but people seem to be realizing his flaws now.

On what basis has Mesko not impressed you? I'm skeptical of any conclusions that you'd draw off of a sample size of four, good or bad, but even beyond that. I haven't seen any reason not to be impressed.

His flaws? He's missed three kicks. Tough stretch, but he'll pull through it.

And from what I've seen in games, the Zoltan has looked pretty dang good. 45 yard NET average. Albeit, it's a small sample size, but impressive nonetheless.

Stop being so pessimistic, Pessismistic Pete. Seriously, it gets annoying.
