[Rain Man]

The fact that kickers are so good almost makes them irrelevant. If you keep the system the way it is, then bad kickers will kill you since everyone else has a suitable one, but at the same time you're not going to invest a high pick in one since they're common.

If you make kickers' jobs harder by giving them narrower goalposts or otherwise differentiating, it'll make kickers more important in the game. A team with a dominant kicker will see the same advantage as a team with a dominant running back or wide receiver. I'm not quite sure I want that.
