I recall 2009 when we had a good free agent punter named Steve Weatherford in camp.  We let him go, lost Podlesh the following year, spent a season with a crazy old man for a punter, then spent a 3rd round pick on a punter.

 

Weatherford is still doing a heck of a job in New York. In Super Bowl XLVI he pinned the Patriots deep which led to a safety on Tom Brady which was a key play in the game.   They actually franchise tagged him in 2011.  He now has a 5 year deal.

 

 

 

I'd also like to point out that Osgood was a stud on special teams.  He was a hit in my book.  Morrison played his role reasonably well.  Chad Henne is our starting QB.  I am not saying he is the answer, but I am glad we had him waiting behind Gabbert.   If you want to point to a crappy pick up, what about Luke "McGowen"?
