CBears019 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 He’s a punter. You don’t need a ******* a scouting report for a punter. If you do, let me know, and I’ll make sure to buy you some water wings so that you don’t drown the next time you eat soup. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about his athletic traits, RAS, and combine numbers? 3 cone is really important for punters. Edited May 1, 2022 by JAF-N72EX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your water wings are on their way. I’m sending them to Toledo with a note saying give to JAF. I’m sure they’ll know what to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DABEARSLCF04 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 What i seen on him is he does not have the biggest leg, struggles with corner punts, but really improved in the 2nd half last year..... take that for what you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ty21 Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Bio Gill walked on at N.C. State after excelling in soccer and football at Cedar Ridge High School in Hillsborough. He redshirted in 2017 and played in one game in 2018 before receiving his scholarship prior to the 2019 season, going on to earn third-team All-ACC honors after ranking third in the FBS with a school-record 47.6 yards per punt (56-2,663, 17 fair catches, 16 inside the 20-yard line, seven touchbacks, one blocked). Gill was the team's starter in 2020 (52-2,334-44.9, 18 fair catches, 18 inside the 20, six touchbacks, one blocked) and was named to the AFCA Allstate Good Works Team for his community service. He landed first-team all-conference accolades as a senior for the Wolfpack, averaging 45.1 yards per punt (65-2,930, 23 fair catches, 31 inside the 20, five touchbacks). Gill was also a kickoff specialist for three years, creating 114 touchbacks on 198 kicks and made four tackles in coverage. Overview Punter with good size but an average leg and mediocre control by NFL standards. He has the physical tools, but lacks consistency with his coffin-corner kicks and distance with his open-field punting. Gill improved over the second half of the season and will need to continue on that path to make an NFL roster. Strengths Three-year punter with sturdy frame. Adequate hang time with improvements likely. Displayed better touch after incorporating higher volume of nose-drop punts. Weaknesses Touch-to-toe time is a shade slow. Disappointing net punting average of just 41.5 yards in 2021. Will pull punts left and out of bounds. Inconsistent ball striker for distance. Don’t thank me, I’m just one man.

I don't know anything about him but he was one of the few picks I agree with based on need alone. It's only a 7th round pick so it's not a big deal if don't work out.

It means good luck running past him when our kick coverage fails after he shanks a 27 yard punt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes sense. Especially considering he'll most likely be seeing the field a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonserinNC Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I was watching some youtube channel that only talks kickers and the guy made a good point that he is a very good holder for field goals and he does kick offs(which most punters won't) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
