Jason Kyle

Well, I got tired of looking at all the other threads that have been going on lately.

So, lets talk about an integral special teamer with a contract up: Jason Kyle.

Even if we pay him the vet minimum, it'll count a good bit against the cap. Do you think we should resign him, or let him go? I mean, I sure someone else can take over the long snapper duties.

Every year some moron (not necessarily calling you a moron) makes a thread about us cutting Jason Kyle because some doofus once long snapped in pop warner.

He's been one of the most consistent, accurate and dependable long snappers in the business.

He is what can only be called a metronome. There shouldn't be any chance he goes ANYWHERE. You want to cut costs, restructure Lucas and cut Hacket.

I'm just saying his contract is up, he's 36, do you think he's worth the resign?

Oh, interesting fact: Ryan Pontbriand of the Cleveland Browns has the distinction of being the highest-drafted long snapper in the history of the NFL Draft. He was drafted in the fifth round of the 2003 NFL Draft by the Browns.

Via Wikipedia.

I think that may be why the Browns have some problems.

750,000 grand isn't that bad for one player, if the team is willing to bring in a guy to do kickoffs so they can keep kasay, I don't think they are going to let an excellent long snapper go just to save a few hundred grand

I think its time to get Hangartner, Barnidge, or Kalil some time at long snapping since they actually play another position and don't take up a roster spot for someone else..say a 4th reciever or something like that.

Having a center playing long snapper is NEVER a good idea.

    • Him and Sanders are the only QBs I would consider in the first round. I won’t be upset if we take Sanders, unlike some people on the board. Both have potential to be really good NFL QBs if the teams can develop them.  But as we have seen teams are not willing or are unable to now properly develop rookie QBs. 
    • I remember the last time we had a Cam at QB in Charlotte
    • Because Young is so historically bad that it just skews too far outside the normal deviations that perspective is easily lost. That or they just don't want to believe it.  The struggles last year would have been more about the infighting and poor roster building or idiot owner's hiring practices than with Stroud. He wouldn't have been as good but he wouldn't have been ruined here and the pressure was not Carr-esk if you take out the Young created portion from his playing style.  Dude is a young guy on a team coached by a Defensive guy building a good D but not building up the O in year 2 of his HC 1st time gig. Seems familiar... Go look at his output this year and not just some crappy Thursday night implosion game, I would take that in a second and never ever look back every time without a shred of doubt while eating 4 of those games a year with a giant smile on my face.
