Mason obviously is a valuable asset , but then it's always easier to be negative rather than build a positive constructive structure .

Kentrell Brice played well on ST's last season , his experience should add to teaching and inspiring any rookies that may make the ST squad . Perhaps a RB or CB will also shine this season on ST's . [biggrin]

Without including Crosby, might need to look at Monty last year, not only a lot of Kick off returning, but he did have a block on a punt if I recall.

This year, I think Josh Jones might be in impact Special Team player this year. Could see him being a tough gunner.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Monty will not see any ST's play, he will be too valuable as GB's #1 RB .
Josh Jones could be a great addition to Kentrell Brice at gunner .
GB's new Punter remains a mystery for me at this point .

Special teams is an important part of GB's overall efforts . It can yield a poor or great field position for the Offense or even score if things go right . Also it can put another team in poor field position or allow an opponent good field position .

This thread want's your views on the Kick/Punt Returner and the whole GB Special Teams . [biggrin]

My view is when receiving a Kickoff, take the touchback, when receiving a punt, FAIR CATCH.

always seems like we get punched in the nuts at the wrong time with special teams penalties on returns.

That is true. But let's face it, there should almost NEVER be a penalty on returns. If your players don't know NOT to block in the back, or hold, then they either aren't being coached properly, or are just plain stupid.

In this threads POLL I selected that GB will score at least 1 kick return for a TD in 2017 . I invite all to make their own Poll selection . [biggrin]

Trevor Davis , IMO , will be GB's breakout player of the year for his Kick/Punt returns and for the few times he will play WR . He will score at both positions , but his real value will be in giving GB good field position on Kick/Punt returns . [thumbup]
