unless he takes a massive pay cut. It will cost 125K to cut him and save 3 million. I agree the Giants should be able to upgrade from him and save money too.

He should not be on the team even if he works for free. The guy costs us too much. He is a liability.
I know it’s only a punter and only $3 million which pales against some of the huge dollar contract mistakes. But, what the hell was in Gettleman’s mind when he gave Dixon this contract? Was he afraid Dixon woulld sign elsewhere?

I think the bigger issue was lack of missed FG/XP due to bad holds. Even when the snap isn’t perfect, Dixon gets it down properly.
I mean, Judge was a Special Teams guy before coming here. He can't find a better punter than this guy? As a ST guy, Judge can't see in training camp or pre-season or whatever that this guy isn't good enough? Come on.
and needs to go. But, the contract extension didn't come out of nowhere. He had a very good first season for us after we traded for him. He just hasn't lived up to it since. He went from a weapon his first year, pinning a lot of punts inside the 20 to mediocre to now being a liability.

There really isn't anybody else on a practice squad who can average more than 35 yds per punt?
His shanks are netter than Dixon's best punts.
He has punted the ball in excess of 80 yards many times and when within his own 30 , he avaerages over 60 yards per punt with great hang time.
He flips the field on every punt.

Araiza looks awesome, but this team needs a lot more than an elite punter.
But to the OP, Dixon has been brutal for going on 2 years now.
Patent pending.

Araiza will probably get drafted in the 2nd RD. He's that good. But the Giants would never draft a punter that high.
Then again, the way their offense plays, having a punter who can boom it 80 yards would be an incredible asset.
Patent pending.

He is only a Junior, so there is a chance he won't come out this year anyway
Make it 13-9 and have Dix punt freely from the 20, which he basically punted from anyway...without pressure.
