Quote:Who the hell cares where someone was drafted as long as they aren't dead weight? You know what the hit/miss ratio is for NFL drafts? Anger is one of the better players on this roster and his leg still hasn't fallen off after punting a million times a game. Maybe you all need to relive the days of Matt Turk to realize how good we have it.

 

Matt Turk was abysmal...  He single handedly cost us the game at Carolina that year he was our worthless punter.  But...  that does not give us a pass for picking up a punter in the third round!

 

As for your question of "who cares" where one is drafted...  I'm sure you don't really mean that...  

 

A punter can be got in practically any other round, even as an undrafted free agent.  Just because GS failed on Turk should not have made him OVER-CORRECT...  Imagine what players we potentially could have taken a flyer on in the 3rd round...  (cough, R.Wilson, cough).  So yes it is important where you draft players at times.  You don't draft a punter in the 3rd round, don't care who they are...

 

For instance, would you draft a FG kicker or DT/ST in the 2nd round in fantasy football?  You could, but you'd be dumb and people would laugh at you...
