Hopkins no longer an option to replace Sturgis....

Dustin Hopkins tweeted that he signed with Saints today. Meanwhile Sturgis remains here without competition. :crazy: Draft the FSU kid Hickey!!!!

Yes let's draft a kicker again. Brilliant. Can we draft a punter too? Oh and our long snapper is getting old. We should go kicker, punter, snapper in rounds 5 6 and 7.

Yes lets keep Sturgis. Keep missing field goals and kickoff short. Thats worked well for us....brilliant.

Just curious ... Which round are you willing to use a pick on a kicker?

 

[nyfinzfan]

For that kid Id use a 5th if hes still there. Hes that damn good. The point of my original post was I wanted them to sign Hopkins (a free agent) to replace Sturgis. Id rather not draft one but Aguayo would solve your problem for 10 years. Hes been given a 3rd round grade by The NFL. I wanted Barth or Prater earlier this year but Hickey inexplicably stayed with Sturgis.

why did the bills cut him after using a pick on him

 

[nyfinzfan]

He was injured in training camp so they picked up Carpenter and IR'd Hopkins. Carpenter was outstanding so they let him go the next year. He never really got a shot

Bummer. Thanks for the heads up. I was looking forward to seeing Hopkins and Sturgis compete in TC.

I'm being told that would take a 4th rounder.

OMG, we should package a few picks together to trade up for him. It's impossible to get a kicker in free agency.

 

[Dolph N.Fan]

He signed with the Saints like 3 weeks ago...

Sign a solid FA kicker. That's the only route I want to see us take

I'd gladly spend a 6th or 7th on Aguayo. That kid is "money in the bank" good. Maybe even a late late round 5 pick. If we end up with one from some trade or something. However, I would be okay with a 6th or 7th round pick. At least it's a higher probability of him being good then a field player.

Kid out of FSU is projected to be a 3-4th rounder.

Prospect Rankings have Arguayo going in the 3-4th round.

Some team with a terrible history with kickers will bite early at the chance of getting a young kicker who has 95% record.
