#Patriots use the #Eagles pick to draft P Jake Bailey at pick 163.

 

[Le Numéro Douze]

A god damn punter? Didn't we just re-sign Allen?

 

[Sciz]

I hope he’s a fast learner. By rule, he has to learn how to punt with his other foot now.

Is he kicking with his right foot? Thought Bill only liked lefties.

 

[BJ_McWild]

Is he left footed?

 

[Zarozzor]

Did Bill get into Chandler Jones stash? This dude is a right footed punter

 

[Boston Boxer]

Dont understand this...at all

 

[trueblue81]

I dont understand this pick. I certainly dont understand why we traded UP for it!

 

[Midship]

confused

 

[goheels22002]

I dont understand this pick. I certainly dont understand why we traded UP for it!

The guy is a backup running back, can place kick and punt. 19-0

Jake Bailey, P, Stanford

It's always good when you burn two picks on a punter or kicker.

Supposedly it's completely by accident that the Pats have had like a dozen left-footed punters in a row.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

I bet he's a righty with secret lefty-like spin. Belichick always one step ahead !!!

As some beat guys on twitter have said. The Pats usually avoid the fifth round except for specialists (Cardona, Slater..).

Some competition and pressure for Allen. Only 100k in guaranteed money.

With about 10 or so left footed punters in the league there is not really a big edge to gain anymore as teams prepare for it and experience it much more often than 10 years ago.

 

[Kontradiction]

**** pick. Dax Raymond is still on the board, though.

BB has always had a major crush on Hekker. Wonder if this is his consolation.
