The San Francisco 49ers drafted a punter in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. What does that mean for special teams in the coming season?
The San Francisco 49ers stunned most of us during the draft when they selected punter Bradley Pinion in the fifth round. Andy Lee will not be the 49ers punter forever, but at 32, it seemed unlikely that he would be replaced. Before the draft, Trent Baalke even indicated it was unlikely the team would address kicker or punter heading into 2015. Of course, the key was "unlikely" because that quickly became more nine days ago.
