Justin Tucker most valuable kicker per Football Outsiders
Mentioned in a discussion of Pro Bowl snubs http://footballoutsiders.com/extra-p...ncement-thread
Finally, Justin Tucker got totally and royally screwed. I know the Pro Bowl is somewhat meaningless, and nobody cares about the kickers, but Justin Tucker is the best kicker in the NFL this year by an absurd margin, No. 2 in FG value behind Janikowski (and ahead of Phil Dawson because his kickers have come from farther away) and No. 1 in kickoff value. Dawson over Tucker is an embarassment.

Tuck wouldn't be able to make it anyway. He'll be preparing for Maximus.

Re: Justin Tucker most valuable kicker per Football Outsiders
Tucker has been terrific, but I was shocked he graded so high.
He adds real value to our rookie class this year.

Re: Justin Tucker most valuable kicker per Football Outsiders
Not a big deal. Dawson was perfect except for one kick that got blocked and he has more from 50+ than Tucker.
Besides, Cleveland needs something to cheer about so I'm willing to throw a bone to the...

I'm so glad we kept Tucker over Cundiff.

Tucker is so cool under pressure too. He really handles himself well and he handles the pressure well. He's done a remarkable job and I'm very happy that they didn't stick it out with Cundiff.

Re: Justin Tucker most valuable kicker per Football Outsiders
They paid enough for him, no point in not keeping him around until you know you have a replacement. No one considered Tucker a real challenger for the job except the coaches when he first came in.

Re: Justin Tucker most valuable kicker per Football Outsiders
It's finally nice to have somebody who is consistant, and can hit the 50+ yarders. Obviously we haven't had any consistancy since Stover, but even when Stover we here, we had no confidence in him for anything upper 40's or longer.
