Kasay a liability

Probably a liability on kickoffs. Do you really care to argue that posistion?

He definitely had more highs and lows last year than I ever remember.

Fortunately we made it through the Rams game, but the fuckin' super bowl kickoff.....

Anyway.
 
Sauerbrun should be kicking off. Just nail the damn thing. I think that O'Brien wants his kickers to loft kickoffs, which is fine for a lighter foot like Kasay, the coverage gets under him and we tend to be amongst leaders in coverage. Sauerbrun, though, is more erratic that way, and should be simply booming them. It's interesting, because a lot of teams who keep a 2nd kicker to kick off get chastised for it, but chances are the rare team that does so gets two things: training for a young, strong legged kicker, and for that one active roster spot, probably saves 2 special teams spots.

Interesting point. Is anyone aware of any “strong legged” promising kickers coming out next year that we could draft in the 5th of 6th round next year? I normally wouldn’t even think about drafting a kicker but Kasay can’t be the man forever and a late pick for a replacement might be wise. Though SD took Kaeding too early according to many (3rd?) jacksonville picked up a very promising K of the future in Josh Scobee (5th?).
Thoughts?
 
Dont even need to draft a kid, just sign some unknown kicker from like a 1AA school. He doenst have to be a great placer kicker, just a young kid with a stron leg, im sure there are dozens of kids like that

Didn't they let him and he was having a problem spraying the ball out of bounds?
