GG still will fancy Bagent moreAlso got Sam Hartman as undrafted free agent his the most attractive qb in the draft.
Not a fan of using a pick on a punter.
Only saving grace is it’s a Melbourne boy taken
I watched some of his highlight footage and not only does he kick with both feet, he also at times kicks the ball holding it like a drop punt as opposed to the torpedo punt style of kickHow can you not want a punter after this.
Like it or not, the Bears had a pretty major punting problem last year.
In Net Yards per Punt, Gill ranked 37th out of 37 qualifying punters.
But as a directional punter, he also ranked 30th out of 33 punters in % of punts downed inside the 20.
I get that drafting a Punter (who Dane Brugler gave a 4th round grade) feels like a stretch, but I expect Tory to bring a legitimate edge to the team -- a good punt will flip a negative game script to neutral (punting from your own endzone -> opponent's 30) or flip a neutral game script to positive (punting from your 45 -> opponent's 5).
Tory Taylor should be a boon to Chicago's defense -- less drives starting from inside your own 50 means less points on the board, and more drives starting from inside the opponent's 10 means more chances at big plays like safeties and takeaways.
Even though the team ranked last in net yards average with 38, the best team averaged 45. So 7 extra yards I would think isn’t a game changer. And it would only be about 3 or 4 yards worse than the average mark.How can you not want a punter after this.

Seems like hes got a lot of personality and sense of humor to me
Yeah before we all crown his ass, wait and see how he does as a playerHe’s been exceptional at every interview I’ve seen.
Now he just needs to not become a bust or I’ll have to go stand at my well worn ledge again
