I've never understood why there isn't more emphasis put on specialists during the draft. I for one, would like to see a couple 7th rounders spent on a kicker and punter. Every team that goes deep into the playoffs has an above average to great kicker. And when Seattle was at its peak, they had arguably the best punter/punt coverage in the league.
And while I'm at it, let's spend a pick on an actual FB. Not a position change project. An actual stud FB like Flowers who will help the running and passing game for many years.
Instead of wasting their late picks on longshots, take guys who will solidify undervalued positions.

How about a round or two above the 7th for a punter?
