Where would you draft a K that could do this??

But he's more impactful on wins and losses, by a WIDE MARGIN, than a solid MLB. Even a HOF MLB, which Curry isn't.

eh....maybe. Depends on alot of variables. Is the guy a 0% FG chance from 66 yards out, like eveyr other NFL kicker, ro does it step down from 75%. If the guy is a 60% chance from 70 yards out and 50 from 75 yards, etc., then you're probably right.

Otherwise, it will affect the game quite alot, but you've got the swing of what happens to the other team's offense on the 25% of misses. How often does missing from the 45 result in a TD?

But yes, it's clearly a first round kicker. Heck, just have 65% touchback ability is probably good for at least third round right there, maybe 2nd.

I'm just really sick of hearing about Curry.

He's the most-hyped player here since Mike Peterson. And look how Peterson turned out. Solid, UNSPECTACULAR player.

This is actually a very good point. If the kicker can make a 75 yard FG 50% of the time, and 70 yards 60%, it changes the whole thing. I would then, think about drafting that kicker in the 1st round.

I'd think about 2 1st rounders to get him and a definite #1 overall. This guy would completely change the game for any team.
