Chiefs are trying to sign Jay Feeley

The Giants let kicker Jay Feely become a free agent without much resistance. But now that three other teams are vying for Feely's services, they're putting up a fight to keep him.

According to someone familiar with Feely's situation, the Giants have upped their offer to rival those Feely has received from the Dolphins, Chiefs and Falcons -- the team with which he began his career. The person, who requested anonymity because negotiations are ongoing, said Feely, 30, was pleased with the offer he received during his visit with the Dolphins yesterday but wants to give the Giants a chance to match. Feely is expected to make his final decision shortly.

Oh **** no. If we dump Tynes for this assclown I'm giving Herm a 50-point deduction.

CoMoChief 03-07-2007 10:08 AM

This is getting ridiculous! What the hell?

recxjake 03-07-2007 10:09 AM

Tynes is a 78.2 % kicker
Feely is a 79.6 % kcker

Oh sorry rex, I didnt realize there was a major difference between the two....

We don't need another old kicker, especially when they can't even kick 50 yarders very accurrately. No thanks. WTF is the FO thinking?

Tynes is OK. I just hope they bring in some competition for training camp.

the **** are you talking about? He had one attempt from over 50 yards last year. He also has twice as many touchbacks as Tynes.

Feely vs. Tynes over the past two seasons:

Player 20-29 30-39 40-49 50+
Feely: 25-27 30-34 14-18 3-6
Tynes: 18-18 16-19 11-18 4-7

About 14% of Feely's career kickoffs have been touchbacks, compared to Tynes' 4%. In 2006, Feely had 12 touchbacks in 77 regular (non-onside) kickoffs, while Tynes had 5 touchbacks in 76 regular kickoffs.

He's just under two years older than Tynes.

As you can see above, he's been about the same as Tynes from 50+, and better from 40-49.

Unless someone manages to conjure up a 28-year-old Morten Andersen, Feely's worth a shot.

I hate Lawrence Tynes with a passion. He misses too many easy kicks/extra points, etc. I'll be glad when Tynes is let go/not re-signed.

Thig Lyfe 03-07-2007 10:32 AM

At the very least bring him in for camp.

Feely's touchback numbers would be even higher had he been playing for KC. He'd have a few more touchbacks in Denver's altitude. :D
