[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 654862, member: 7261"] If we are looking at the last 3 years, Mason's % over that time is 85.7% and 100% on PAT after the change in the rule. Him becoming more consistent during this time no doubt factored into the decision. While I am not arguing your point, something i found interesting is that there are currently 42 Kickers on the NFL payroll. Without going through each guy, I am guessing some didn't work out and are currently free agents? Do their numbers change the %'s and the total money spent on the position by teams? Some could be injury replacements. [URL]http://overthecap.com/position/kicker/[/URL] While there is no doubt the Packers could have gone the cheap route and paid a rookie $500K and used the savings towards keeping one of our own or towards a FA, but banking that money and using it that way doesn't guarantee anything either, just like paying Crosby doesn't guarantee anything. All that said, The Packers must have decided that Crosby still has a strong enough leg, consistent and dependable enough on FG's and PAT's to not take a chance on potentially derailing a season with a Nate Freese? Maybe he will give us a little more of this hustle with the extra money it appears we are paying him?
