fricking yes. Love Jasper. Do not have faith in Hartley.

I thought it was strange that he didn't get a gig after leaving college. He was impressive at LSU. Strangest thing is seeing a kicker do so well in college and not translate to the NFL - you'd think that'd be the least bust-worthy position to transition into. Both Jasper and Patrick Peterson were only the real consistent scorers for a while.

He was very accurate but did not have great range. I think Alleman handled the very long kicks. Jasper was pretty automatic within 45 yards though.

Jasper hit from fifty plus fairly consistently. He handled all kicks during his time at LSU. Alleman started kicking after he left. Alleman was the one with limited range.

An accurate and strong kicker who developed later in his collegiate career, Jasper is reliable with strong success from long range. He could be the first LSU kicker ever drafted, and that would likely come in the later rounds. If not, he should get a chance to compete for a roster spot in training camp. Jasper was limited to two field goal attempts over his first two seasons with LSU, but developed into one of the top kickers in the nation over the next two and earning consensus All-America status in 2010. He had 85 points in 2009 before capping his career with a personal-best 120 while making 28 of 34 field goals and missing just one of 37 extra points. He was accurate from 50 yards or more, making 5 of 7 chances over the last two seasons. He nailed a 50-yarder in a 41-24 win over Texas A&M in the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 7, and his career long is 53. He was also adept at punting, averaging 41.0 yards while putting 14 of his 21 punts inside the 20 with the other seven going for touchbacks. Jasper drove two punts for 50 yards or more.

Yeah Jasper was WAY better than Alleman. The Cold David/Josh Jasper years spoiled us.

so Jasper kicked at 84% and Hartley kicks at 84.5%
Doesn't seem like that good of an upgrade to me

It'd be WAY cheaper, for one.

doesn't hartley have a huge cap hit if cut?
Should be around $2 million cap hit if cut this year, where as it would be less than $1 million if cut next year.
So cutting him this year would cost us $2 million + jasper's contract (if in the top 52)
if our TE doesn't hold in the green bay game, he's sitting out 86% for last year. That is comparable to matt bryant

Most of Hartleys kicks came indoors on turf, all of Jaspers outdoors on grass right? thats saying something.
