    Looks like Powell secured the job.

      The Bills should add a WR to replace him. That position is not muddled enough already.
      Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

        Disappointing. I haven't been impressed by Powell and I was hoping he'd lose out to someone better.

        Of course, we can always cut Powell and re-sign Stahovich after week 3, provided we don't have to cut our extra place kicker to make room on the roster.

          Kinda curious as to why they'd do this now... Why not keep him around so that Powell's leg doesn't get worn out, if nothing more...

          It's not like roster cuts are happening today or anything... Only reason I could see doing this now is if they want to sign someone or activate someone off of the reserve or PUP list.

                    Powell has a leg but he also has a tendency to shank punts at the worst possible times. He needs to be more consistent.

                      Standing on his own 25, P Shawn Powell just landed a punt on the opposite goal line. That's 75 yards in the air. #BillsCamp

                        Powell has promise, but he needs to improve over last year. It takes more than a big leg. He was 24th in Gross, 23rd in Net, 21st in punts downed inside the 20, 22nd in punts fair caught and when returned the opponent averaged 12.8 yards (29th in the NFL).

                        On the plus side, he only had 2 touchbacks.

                          Two reasons I figure, to give Stahovich a legitimate chance to find another team because he's good enough to punt somewhere, and to give Powell all the practice he can get because he needs it. I don't really think you need to worry about a punter saving his leg, especially a young one, B. As mentioned he's a big boy with a powerful young leg, but sort of needs to move along in his development after mastering the ill timed shank.

                          Kind of disturbs me that a punter needs to be "developed" but oh well. The Bills love them some Florida State.

                            I would guess that most NFL punters can do that when they're not being rushed and don't have to worry about placement.

                              maybe but it's just your guess.

                              Never heard Moorman do that before.
