Yes yes and yes!!I know it's unusual to draft a kicker, but it seems like drafting one would enable us to get a really good one. It's painfully obvious Zuerlein is done. The Raiders did great drafting Sebastian Janokowski.
I don't even think a high-round pick would be necessary. I believe it's possible to get a good kicker in the 4th, 5th, 6th, or even 7th round. If the scouting team does a good job, maybe we can draft the next Dan Bailey or the next Sebastain Janakowski, and that's without using an early round pick.
We had the best kicker in the league back when we had Dan Bailey, and also way back in '81 when we had Rafael Septien. It's so much nicer when the game is on the line to have confidence that your kicker will come through for you if you need a game-winning field goal. Zuerlein nearly gave me a nervous breakdown.

I would say no. They have one under contract and can bring another one in for competition. Zuerlein might have a bounce back year next year.I know it's unusual to draft a kicker, but it seems like drafting one would enable us to get a really good one.

The odds on the Bengals winning it all are slim.Worked for the Bengals
But the kicker probably won't be why.The odds on the Bengals winning it all are slim.
The kicker isn't why the Cowboys lost either.But the kicker probably won't be why.
No.The kicker isn't why the Cowboys lost either.
They still had a great chance regardless.No.
But the kicker made it harder than it needed to be over the course of the season.
Not yet. But he would be if thee gave him a chance. It's why we lost several games this yearThe kicker isn't why the Cowboys lost either.
There's Janikowski then there are guys, the Bucs and Browns spent picks on kickers in recent years, who don't cut it. The Rams drafted a kicked last year - he's not their kicker. They've got a guy who used to kick for Tampa (not the guy the Bucs drafted, either).
I don't think it's necessary to draft a kicker. Every college team, at every level, has one. That's over 250 teams. But you certainly need to bring some in and have them compete for the job. Thinking Greg Z is good enough is a bad plan - make him (or someone else) earn it.

Please do, in the late roundsI know it's unusual to draft a kicker, but it seems like drafting one would enable us to get a really good one. It's painfully obvious Zuerlein is done. The Raiders did great drafting Sebastian Janokowski.
