The Buffalo Bills (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/buf/buffalo-bills) had one of the NFL's worst special-teams units in 2013, an across-the-board problem that included poor punting from Shawn Powell and Brian Moorman, shaky kickoffs from Dan Carpenter (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/11688/dan-carpenter) and a lack of capable coverage men.
Re-stocked in 2014 with first-year punter Colton Schmidt (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/16623/colton-schmidt), a kickoff specialist in Jordan Gay (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/16591/jordan-gay)and the addition of special-teams mavens Larry Dean (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/14375/larry-dean), Corey Graham (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/10611/corey-graham) and Anthony Dixon (http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/13212/boobie-dixon), the Bills were near the top of the NFL in most special-teams categories this past season.
Last year, they were 31st (http://espn.go.com/blog/buffalo-bills/post/_/id/6628/bills-plummet-in-gosselin-rankings) in Gosselin's rankings.
