Does that change your opinion at all?
As for the field position conundrum, I thought about it, and yes there are some times when it'd be better to punt, but just to have the FG option is huge at the end of a half or a close game. You wouldn't always want to kick the 65 yarder, but to be able to make the 55 yarder(from the 38 I believe) with 85-90% accuracy would be huge.

If you're saying that 65 yards is to this guy like 40 yards is to every other guy, then he may well be a #1 overall pick.
