Lol if you think it's just as easy to find something kicker off the street.

We've been spoiled by Kasy too long.

Gano isn't the best, but it's better to pay him than end up with another Medlock.

Probably could have found a decent one in the draft.

I mean, we did last year.

Holy poo, that is a lot for a kicker.  

The top kicker contracts in the league, 
Gostkowski (4.3 mil per year)
Tucker (4.2 mil per year)
Crosby (4.025 mil per year)
Succop (4 mil per year)

If we just paid Gano 5.5 mil per year, he is BY FAR the highest paid kicker in the league!!!

Math error, nevermind.

Someone earlier asked for some context, here you go.  Highlighted a couple of the kickers I noticed mentioned in this thread.  Keep in mind, this is an "all time" list of kickers sorted on career FG make %.

I too am often excited when the Carolina Panthers make stupid salary cap decisions, and pay their players at the very tip top of said players range.

I used to brag to my friends all the time about us having two of the highest paid RB's in the league on the same team.  Also really rubbed it in their faces when we gave Jake a contract that made no sense.

 

Oh, I forgot about the James Anderson and Jon Beason contracts.  Gosh, glad we are back to the good ole days when I can brag about highly paid JR keeps his guys.

Wow. Who is talking about a decade ago. Can we keep the discussion to the topic instead of going down bunny trails. This contract with Gano was a good one. Why not go back to the Rae Carruth contract while you are bringing up everything but the kitchen sink looking for something to complain about.

Yes,  but what you're leaving is out is that on average Kasay kicked longer field goals than most,  and the amount was more than double what Graham Gano has kicked.

  Honestly. Can you show me a time where you DIDNT think whatever move was made was a good idea? Just one. Blind faith in every move the FO ever makes is unrealistic.

It's a fuging joke about you guys who love making our players "the highest paid in the league" like that's some cool thing to do or something.

Making an average kicker the highest or second highest paid K in the league is stupid no matter which way you turn it....even more stupid...letting go of a much cheaper option just under a year ago that was under contract.

I think he was already within the top 5 from the previous contract. His cap hit certainly was. He bet on himself and we didn't give him enough of a challenge in camp last year.

      2026 Charlotte Hornets

      I'm sorry but if you're saying the things you are then you don't know ball or are just trolling.    Differential says the hornets are the 7-8th best team in the NBA. They started the year off injured and horrible in clutch moments. They are -6 in expected record because of the above two things and have found out how to win.    Coaching is absolutely not a problem at all, it's a big reason they are turning the corner and winning.    12-3 over the last 15 with only one of those losses at full strength.  +2.8 differential  Starting lineup has the best net of any 5 man lineup in NBA history. They are favorites in 15 of the teams last 22 games.  Their expected record is 44-38, which likely gets them the 6th seed.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      I wouldn’t complain if we drafted Dillon Thieneman at #19 and finally fix the FS black hole we’ve had for so long. He’s a natural cover 3 FS.
