Message: <blockquote data-quote="El Guapo" data-source="post: 659995" data-attributes="member: 5830">Tim Masthay had a terrible season last year, shanking punts all over the field and generally not helping the team. He ranked 25th in gross yards but 13th in net at 41.7 yards - an all time Packer record mind you. You may think that his net was due to the directional punting we hear that Slocum and now Zook have Masthay do. However, the stats seem to paint a different picture. We were 30th for punts inside the 20 and tied for 31st for fair catches. This means that we didn't pin the other team inside the 20 very often and didn't provide a ton of hang time. With the Packers being first in punt coverage yardage at 4.1 yards per return, it means that our coverage unit was outstanding despite very poor punting.All of this is to say, do you see Thompson merely bringing in camp competition or do you think there is someone out there worthy of a 6th or 7th round pick? One way or another, we certainly do not want another Brett Conway situation.</blockquote>
