Bird’s Eye View: Positional Analysis
There is a strong possibility that no kickers or punters are selected in April - there are no sure things available in this draft. But several of these prospects will be in training camps this summer competing for NFL jobs. The top kickers include Ben Sauls (Pittsburgh), Tyler Loop (Arizona), Andres Borregales (Miami, Fl), Ryan Fitzgerald (Florida State), and Jonathan Kim (Michigan State). The top punters are led by a couple of Australians - Jeremy Crawshaw (Florida) and James Burnip (Alabama).
