He seems to push everything to the right, but he has the leg to make a 70 plus yard fg. Most kickers pull it left trying to add distance, really odd. With that said, I’d prefer accuracy over distance, those intermediate misses during the course of a game are devastating.

You are stuck in the Rivera/Hurney regime. Rhule/Fitterer don't play around

That guy is not a Panthers fan. He is a Jets fan that came over with Darnold. He literally has only known anything about this team starting in around April of this year. 

Talking team history is not going to work.

Remember when people bitched about Graham Gano not having enough leg, despite hitting a 63 yard GW FG for us? 

But we signed a guy we trot out there often to attempt such a feat and he never hit a single one. 

 

I don't recall people outright criticizing Gano's leg strength, but maybe more of an insinuation tied to Rivera's reluctance to let Gano attempt 50+ yard FGs...particularly in 2017 when he led the league in FG% but had only ONE attempt beyond 50 yards.  That should have been more an indictment on Rivera IMO...it was always evident (to me at least) that Gano had a strong leg.  He was pretty routinely among the top kickers for touchback percentage.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
