Solution to the Jets' Punting Problem

Possbile future Hall of Fame Punter Shane Lechler is an unrestricted free agent, this offseason, and would be an excellent addition for the New York Jets.

The Jets' punter for the majority of 2008 was Reggie Hodges. Hodges averaged only 42.8 yards a punt and was one of the most inconsistent players on New York. He couldn't get the Jets out of trouble when they stalled deep into their own territory.

Lechler, on the other hand, had the second best average, in terms of yards for punt, in the NFL.

This could be one of those initially overlooked signings, but in time, will benefit the Jets, immensly.
