Well, when it comes to kickers, the are 1 for 2. They drafted Greg Zuerlein & Sam Slowman. Those 3 I listed are players I like and this is a good year for kickers. Again I would love a veteran, but I believe they drafted Ethan Evans last year and they watched him in the Shrine Game, Cam Little also played in the Shrine game FWIW.
He hasnt exactly been playing with great QBs either
I'm counting kickers that they signed every year to actually be our kicker. Can't exclude those, so 1 for 2 is extremely misleading to me. It was a shit show last year to say the least.
It was, they tried to go cheap and lost. Hard to understand why they went Maher, but then they went back to them, however, there were not many good options last year. Again, I hope they sign a proven veteran and actually throw some money at, however, I believe after drafting their punter and succeeding, they will look to do the same at kicker and this is a good year for kickers in the draft IMHO.
I'd go with Reichard. Just 20 of 23 on FGs but 53 of 53 on PATs. That's 76 kicks and he only missed 3. 167 kicks the last 2 years with 7 missing.
I hope whatever route they take works out but I'd rather go after a vet. Not having a reliable kicker has and will bite us in the butt. Even the guy everyone wanted last year, Moody, had his rookie issues.
Keep in the extra points are not the same as the NFL. It’s from like the 5 yard line in college, should not be missing those.
