Hes not going to do anything to get himself booed or escorted out of a practice You actually believe he talks the talk here and would do it in front of any group of fans?

Now that Gase is no longer here to suck off it appears that this years posts to waste our time is going to be spent trashing Douglas. gee, ya think? No matter what he says, he can't get over the Gase butthurt. That's what all this is really about.

Finding decent kickers and back up QBs shouldn't be this complicated. Place Kicker should be the last position he’s looking fill, and I’m pretty content with the way he’s going about it. He brought in Naggar who beat out Ficken, and now he’s got another K in there to compete with Naggar. That’s good enough for me. The other way would be to spend a draft pick or free agent money on one, and the team has too many other issues to throw resources at the K position. You do that when your team is more complete and competing for playoffs and beyond. That’s not where this team is at. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheNuuFaaolaExperience Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 It's going to be a fun season of Zach Wilson driving down field and getting within makeable kicking distance just for our kicker to miss wide right.

Rangers9 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Ficken wasn’t a total bust he had good moments and made some clutch kicks so I’m surprised they cut him so fast and didn’t allow him to compete in training camp. He had injuries and maybe that played in JD’s decision. He might not have been kicking competitively in camp. I guess they’ll bring someone else in to compete. And probably Ficken will get a contract offer with another team if he’s healthy which doesn’t mean he’s going to make the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is you don't have to invest much in to signing a decent kicker or back up that's kinda my point. There's a middle ground between giving a kicker a multi year deal and settling for whatever crap is left on the waiver wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can argue it wasnt all you want but I never apologized for the deal, it sucked in every way for every stupid reason Bradway came up with And the point was we didnt use a #1 on Nugent, I could care less about Jolley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally disagree, good long term kickers are like gold, you find one you pay him, they never break the bank money wise. Kicker is never a priority until you lose a couple of games because of one then a team runs around scrambling to find one. We had a pro bowl kicker and mccganan let him walk over a million or so bucks and since then we have had what 5 or 6 kickers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa got there first so when Joe called Jose said HHHMMMM should I turn down Tampa (remember I am a Florida kid) and maybe win a super bowl to play with the Jets NNNNAAAAAAAAA. Now if you said lets use a late draft pick for him you would at least have a point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If kickers were like gold, they’d get drafted more often and cost more in free agency. Like I said, I’m happy with the process JD is going thru to find one. He’s got a guy that he likes better than last year’s starter now, and has someone in camp to compete with him. My wins expectation this year is pretty low, and I’m not concerned about losing a game or two on a missed kick this season. It’s really the least of my concerns at this stage. Hopefully the process lands the team a kicker now that they want to resign in three or four years. If it doesn’t, they can get more aggressive then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can’t get in the end zone you try to get points on the board with a FG attempt. Moreover in close games your entire strategy could result around how good your kicker is. Acting like a kicker isn’t a vital roster piece is some backwards you know what thinking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PepPep Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Ficken ceased to be providing competition for Naggar so JD immediately signed competition. Its been Naggars job to lose for a while but you always have to have a second kicker pushing you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
