I'm in MFN 33. I joined after the draft.

The AI did not draft a punter, and there are NONE available via free agency.

29 PUNTERS IN THE ENTIRE LEAGUE!!!

This is ridiculous.

This is a bug that should be resolved in the next version - in the mean time, I just created a few new punters and kickers in the league.

Glad to know now that additional players can be created to resolve that fact there aren't enough of one position.

I just played an entire season in MFN-30 without a field goal kicker because there were only 30 in the league. I lost 5 of the first 6 games by 3 points or less where I had a Safety or Punter kicking and missing field goals. I should not have had to make a rule stopping field goals from being kicked in order to win the 6 games after that.

Please let me know if this happens in any other league - I did recently make a way for me to generate punters and kickers since they have been coming up short in a few leagues and I know that can be very frustrating!

There are 2 kickers in the 2016 draft class for MFN-30. That brings the total kickers for the league up to 32. Wouldn't hurt to have just a few more in case of emergency.

Y'all should come to CUST 9. When sorted by current ranking, the first two pages of the free agent list are entirely punters and kickers. I think we have a shortage of position players...
