Because I've already seen it mentioned multiple times by people on Twitter and I know people think Jerry spends money in the wrong places...thus losing some guys while keeping others.

At least now we are one of the youngest teams in the NFL with just 5 players above 30 years old... talented? that's other thing.

In a league of parity where so many games are decided by a score or less - it's imperative to have a kicker you can count on.

Bailey is money and I'd gladly pay to have that peace of mind every time you trot him out there.

... I'm actually glad we locked up Bailey ... Boy was it horrendous watching our kickers before Bailey arrived, it was terrifying I tell you!

Again, I have no issue with him. I'm not a capologist either so I won't make contract statements. I've just seen the talk already. Now I did like how we used to find diamonds in the rough and they seemed to do pretty well. After all Bailey was brought in s competition. But the contract talk is out there with our situation. I think it is a little steep. My issue with kickers is mental. One year hero, the next there could be one glitch that throws them off. There are only a few with really great longevity. But he has been considered a bright spot.

Absolutely. Just like with Mike Vanderjagt - one minute he's the best kicker in the game, the next minute he can't find a job. I'm pretty sure Parcells mentally bullied him though and he couldn't handle the pressure.

The 49ers re-signed 39 year old Phil Dawson to a two year deal because it is important to have a good kicker. The Giants re-signed Josh Brown.

Bailey got his pay check.. now he's going to pack it in.. I don't know what that exactly means for a kicker though...

Any word on what kind of money some of those other kickers got? I thought I saw one get around $2M/yr. Not sure. I'm just curious to see. I personally think Jerry Jones paid the market price for a kicker these days and got really good value with Bailey.
