[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1099410, member: 10086"] I believe Brandon being cut late was partly due to us getting late notice on Rich leaving and hiring Cam Achord later (Feb 27th). Keeping in mind league year started 12 days later. That’s not much time to consult or formulate strategies with Achord to begin with, so that factors imo. It was Achord himself who helped clarify why they moved on from Brandon. He mentioned in a recent interview post draft they he liked that Smack uses a powerful, straight line Kick. He thought that would be more advantageous in January either way that 14MPH cross wind at Lincoln Field, Soldier Field or Green Bay. Brandon coincidentally missed kicks in Postseason at Soldier Field and Philly in Postseason I think a new Teams Coach kinda gets to make that decision and gets more backing to begin with, yet Achord came from New England Foxboro and Giants MetLife Stadiums, he’s familiar with conditions like Green Bay in January. I’m going off partial memory but Smack was 10-13 Efficiency from 50+ and I believe finished 3/3 last year past 50+. Achord mentioned he prefers a Kicker who is solid inside 55 Yards over a Kicker who can hit at 61-62 (like accuracy over length). I suppose that if Smack is deemed more conducive to cutting through Wind with his style they thought that was worth the draft move and accelerating Brandon’s departure. As to who is correct idk? Just relaying some thoughts as to why that $1Mil wasted might’ve been been an acceptable choice. [/QUOTE]
