Shane Lechler out; Get ready for a new era: Marquette King

[PTBG]

76 yard punt:

Of the 17 Raiders free agents, you can pretty much kiss punter Shane Lechler. Lechler made $3.8 million last year and McKenzie kept rookie Marquette King around on injured reserve for a not-raining-money day.

Get on the wave brehs, The of Punting has arrived Get used to it, Black Excellence has taken over the punting position. Raiders Black Excellence, Terrelle Pryor on that come-up and now Marquette King.

Can't take him seriously until he gets a load of tats with no real meaning on his arms and tells the media to not compare him to Reggie Roby...then, THEN I may take him serious

Really, from what I remembered he looked pretty good. We even discussed in the season thread about letting Lechler go because King looked good in Pre Season.

Why the fukk did we let Shane go?

 

[Based Lord Zedd]

Like several black QBs before him Jamarcus Russell was eventually forced to change positions.

 

[SoulController]

was he bad this year? guy might be the 2nd best punter ever

Marquette King is one badass name, sounds like a character from Blue Chips or Jackie Brown
