I got C as a small chance pick if there's great value.

Hate? Definitely not. We've had far more erratic kickers. Difference is they missed more long one than short ones like Hartley does.

Just kick 30-47 yarders and we'll be fine. Anything shorter and he might miss and he doesn't have a big leg to be consistent further than that.

Not an apologist but he is #8 alltime NFL FG accuracy

20-29yds 21 of 23
30-39yds 20 of 25
40-49yds 12 of 14
and of " he doesn't have a big leg to be consistent further than that." he is 5 of 7 lifetime over 50yds

Kickers are soooooooo much better than they've ever been.

Basically everybody on that list is in the league right now

Could of sworn he missed more inside 30 than outside so I guess I was wrong about that.

And yeah I knew he had a good percentage overall. I've never been one to bash the guy. He did help us get to and win the superbowl after all. Him and Porter were so clutch in those last two games.

I think more people just remember the 3 misses at the end of games that cost the us. I've always said if the D would have held those kicks wouldn't have mattered. Can't put it all on him.

2 for 2 so far. Almost surprised we passed on Allen. If LT need wasn't so great I think he's the no brainer pick for us in the 3rd.

Well we went 3 for 3 on what I thought were the needs.

Vaccaro also addresses CB with his versatility. We got a DE, but I think he'll convert to OLB given his size.

Didn't think NT was a high priority, but from indications we were looking for a run stuffer to pair with Bunkley and Hicks.

We must be planning to let DLP play out his RFA tender and then sign him long term given that it seems we weren't targeting C at all.

Also seems we are okay with Strief/Harris/Jones competing at RT.

I think we target some good backup QBs and TEs in UDFA.

OLB - Rufus Johnson fits the bill here
OT - Armstead
CB - Vaccaro can play some here, although he is listed at S
DT/N- Jenkins


Close enough.

I LOVE the Armstead and Jenkins picks. Rufus is random as shite, but definitely not surprised by some off the wall name from a small school. Vaccaro has grown on me drastically.
