I think the team feels like they've just drafted the best punter in the NFL. It's what the Chiefs felt like when they drafted Colquitt a few years back, but the Skins didn't burn a first round pick.
My dad used to work with a guy who was the punter for Purdue when Brees was there. He tried out for a bunch of NFL team but never made it. I asked him if the fact that the ball is a slightly different shape made a difference and thought that it did. Obviously some people are better at making that adjustment than others.
