Kicker news: #Chiefs cut K Ryan Succop, which means they are keeping Brazilian rookie Cairo Santos, who played at #Tulane

Jay Feely is horrible and old. I've seen him miss at least 3 game winning kicks in the past few years on Red Zone.

Henry or Succop would be better than Graham.

Also could be gotten: David Akers, Rob Bironas.

Both are likely washed up.

Feely has a much stronger leg than both of them. Also, Henery missed some pretty crucial kicks last season... Same with Succop in that Chargers game.

Also, the Saints are at 53. So when the Saints do sign a kicker, they have to cut somebody.

85.7% 30-39
84.6% 40-49

vs Graham

Career 85.5%
95.3% 20-29
91.2% 30-39
80.0% 40-49

Feely is a huge born again and anti-gay so if we do sign him that prolly closes the door on us bringing in Mike Sam.

obviously it's a longshot but I'd love us to sign Sam as the meltdown would be historic
