None of the coaches want players to get injured, and I honestly believe they do all they can to prevent it. But its the nature of the sport, its the roughest team sport in existence and injuries are going to happen.
I know a few rugby players who would disagree with you.
It really is possible to strengthen your body by continuing to abuse it. Ruggers like to say "that which does not kill you makes you stronger". It also seems to work for MMA.......just sayin'

Yes. And so far this preseason the Saints special teams have been very good.

Would you rather have Nicks, Strief, Colston, or Tennant, or a freaking punter?

And if you wanna play the what-if game, suppose Morstead was a bust? Is he still worth two picks in a draft where we only had 4 picks? Judging from our special teams units a real football player probably benefits us more than a punter.
Actually if you think about it, punter is probably one of the reliable positions to gamble on. Besides getting injured, how does a punter become a bust? Ha ha.
