Panther K Harrison Butker - The Buttkicker - Drilling Some Nice Ones At His Workout

[Saca312]

One highly anticipated training camp battle happens to be against our kickers; Graham Gano and Harrison Butker. The healthy competition should only encourage each kicker to get better and earn their spot on the roster.

Harrison Butker wastes no time getting ready. A rookie drafted in the 7th round, Butker comes out as one of college's better kickers, completely dominating other kickers in the NFL combine. The Panthers hope this guy could be the answer after a very disappointing season from NFL veteran kicker Graham Gano.

At his training facility, Butker works out and posts himself kicking long balls, showing off his accuracy while at it.

In the clip above, watch as Butker nails a 50 yarder as if it were routine. The calm demeanor and manner after which he kicked shows a kicker who is very comfortable with kicks like these. Using his powerful leg, he nails in the ball between the yellow posts.

In the next clip seen above, watch as Butker nails a 55 yarder, once again calmly walking off as if it were routine. Poised and strong, he attacks the ball viciously and with care, ensuring its destination between the two yellow pegs.

In the clip above, watch as Butker nails a 61 yarder. With confidence and dare, Butker vigorously attacks the ball, using every ounce of strength and knowledge he has up to this point. With solid technique and leg strength, he nails the ball, celebrating by throwing both his arms up in the air.

Finally, Butker shows off an exercise he uses to fine-tune his accuracy. By hitting from the side, he works the ball's angle between the two posts. Not very easy to do for any normal kicker, yet Butker makes it look like clockwork.

Don't sleep on Harrison Butker. He was drafted for a reason, and he could very well unseat Gano from his job with the Panthers.

Meh indoors doesnt count. Pretty much every NFL kicker can do this.

I still like him though and will call him hairy butt

Since this is the Huddle, I assumed it would be a series of pictures of women he's associated with in his personal life.

What's nice is the lift and trajectory he gets from that 60 yarder.  He put it up in the air.

I'm excited about the possibility of a better kicker than Gano, that's for sure. But, those kicks we're with no pads, no pressure and no weather.

I'd rather see him hit a 50 yarder straight up with the pressure on versus hitting FG's from a sharp angle in a dome by yourself

And how should he practice?  

"Don't kick until the games on the line, son."

You guys are weird.  

Training camp will add pressure and he'll miss some kicks but he's the first K we've ever drafted.  Dudes got a shot.

 

 

anybody else think he resembles Kasay?

Not criticizing him, just saying he can hit all the 60 yarders he wants in a dome but we'll see who he really is when the pressure is on. Kickers hit from 65-70 pre-game but then miss from 50 with the game on the line. Show me something when it really counts.

btw, we cut Gano and we have 3.25 million against the cap, and Butker costs less than a half a mill. 

If Butker wins the battle, that's almost 3 mill more to pay Star/Trai/Great White Buffalo, and we get Butker for 3 more years on a 7th round pick salary.

 

I'm not gonna go Sacca here, but I think I remember Getty saying he liked him because he made kicks in critical situations, and that is a concern on Gano.
