Round 7 (No. 228): P Sterling Hofrichter – Syracuse

Analysis: Ryan Allen just got put on notice. As Scott emphasized in his breakdown of new Falcons punter Sterling Horfrichter, to take a punter is to expect him to play. Otherwise, there are way too many talented players still available that would trump a need to simply add competition for Allen. Obviously, seventh-round selections rarely work out, so there’s not much use in criticizing this pick. Hofrichter is a low-risk, high-reward option that has a chance to start as a rookie.
