[QUOTE="PackAttack12, post: 918030, member: 11933"] His punt average last year of 50.8 was the 4th best in NFL history. My reaction was similar to Dantes: why did he go to the Rams? I can understand the Bills not tendering him. From what little I've looked into, Bojorquez was a restricted free agent with the Bills when they decided not to tender him. Supposedly there was a break down in negotiations between his agent and the Bills, so he became an unrestricted free agent. Bojorquez' RFA tender was at around 2.1 million and they signed Matt Haack to a 3 year deal for less money than that. It's possible that, given Bojorquez' incredible year, that his agent severely overplayed his hand and the Bills simply said thanks but no thanks. Why he went to the Rams, I cannot say. But I've read where the race between Hekker and Bojorquez was super tight and potentially the only reason why the Rams went with the incumbent Hekker is because he agreed to restructure his contract. I'm sure that was the deciding factor into which punter they ultimately kept. He could've definitely went elsewhere. Maybe he's so competitive and confident in himself that he wanted to beat out a proven punter. Who knows. Ultimately, however it happened, I think the Packers might've caught lightening in a bottle.
