All you big guys out there.
How high does the skill kicking need 2 be before he can kick decently.
My 1st string kicker kicks 8.

My current kicker isn't terrible at 7. Could be better from any distance more than 25 yards, but he makes some of them and is automatic from inside.

Having said that, my kicker was producing fairly good results when he was at 7 kicking. Now he had high strength(15) and high punting(6) at the time. He has moved on now and continues to kick the ever loving bejeebers out of the ball.

I've got a kicker with 10 kicking and 11 punting, and he has managed a 44 yard fg a while ago, there was a 40 mph tail wind though

Does the kicker need punting ?
Same question, does the punter really need kicking ?

Early in season two we had a group called "Grid Iron Research Group", and we had the same question: TBH: we did not find THE answer, but some of us thought yes and we saw small signs in our statistical approach that they could be right...

I know: too many "thought" and "could"...

A lot of teams are using the same player for kicker and punter and saving money in that manner.
