Dan Bailey

Hopefully, he'll be fine. If not, I like what I saw from that Aussie that we keep bringing back.

MAN!
I gotta' agree, those muddy slugfests of yesteryear when a score of 9-6 ,12-10,,or 6-5 put that 'WIN' in your teams record book.

Maybe Bailey could practice his kick on Putty

I will be worried if he struggles in camp

Then get another guy and make him earn his check. He is well paid. We can't afford to have him lame and all we do is have him compete with some former Razorback kid like the Sam Irwin-Hill guy that we signed to do Jones' alma mater a solid.

This is not that complicated.

Oh dang it! He's a Commander too!

Sam Irwin-Hill signed was another skins signing.

Yup, I saw that after I had posted it. Dang it! Time to look for kickers for possible FA signings lol.

We always bring in an extra punter and kicker
Kinda have to but may be more important after last year with Bailey

I suppose if he becomes an UDFA, I wouldn't mind us getting Justin Yoon from Notre Dame. He's a pretty good kicker, and he'd be a good insurance policy if something is wrong with Bailey beyond the injury from last year.

Are you kidding? Normally you seem pretty level headed but are you saying you think we can just pick up a kicker that is even close to being the equivalent to of one of the best kickers in the league?

So you are saying draft one? All I am saying is that they need to prepare and get another kicker and have an honest competition until they are satisfied Bailey is right. That's it.

We do, but most of the time we bring in someone that you never see again. And usually they are a kicker/punter that is really not great at either one.

It is a lot different from the camp long snappers we bring in. Most of them usually stick around in the league. In fact, three teams (four if you count Jon Condo who was Oakland's DS for years) have ex-Cowboy long snappers--Charley Hughlett, Casey Kreiter and Zach Wood.

Maybe take a flyer with one in a later round. No, I was just saying he won’t be easily replaceable and I seriously doubt we find one that’s 80% as good as was in his prime or until he got hurt. They do need to prepare though, no doubt about that.

It seems we are constantly complaining and worried about the coaches, front office, Dak, Dez, the OLine, etc.

I, for one, am moderately concerned we may have lost the advantage we had some many years in Bailey. He was absolute money for so long, but the second half of last season really scares me.

Sure, he was injured so of course that'll influence his kicking. But it was quite noticeable that his misses started to mess with his head the last 3-4 games.

Anybody else worried, or do you think he's correct everything and be Mr. Automatic again?

I'm a little concerned. While kickers can go into funks and "lose it" very quickly, I don't see that with Bailey. My concern is that he seems to get hurt or tweak something every year. As always, we should bring in another kicker. I expect Bailey to be fine but you just never know.

 

[Alexander]

Remember Nick Folk? He was Mr. Automatic before he got injured and never was the same again.

Put yo **'n head down bwoi!!!!

Sign another kicker as an undrafted free agent for insurance and let him prove he is alright. No reason to be scared. In fact, Garrett relies on him too much anyways. Maybe not having him around gets him to be a little more aggressive rather than figuring if he gets to the 35, he has three points in the bag.

I definitely think it was a physical issue.

Dan Bailey, like most NFL kickers, was an undrafted free agent. So yeah, that's kind of how it works.

Hopefully, "Money" will be back to his old self with an offseason of rest, rehab, and training.

Yeah, but most don’t end up as good as Bailey.
