[QUOTE="Deleted member 6794, post: 822086"] The problem being that people that tell you Crosby was a top five kicker at any point during his career would be completely wrong. While it's definitely tough to kick in Green Bay opposing kickers, who aren't used to play at Lambeau, have combined to hit a higher percentage of field goals in Green Bay than him over the past 12 seasons. Crosby has drawn negative comments because he's a below average kicker being paid like an elite one. Crosby isn't anywhere close to being in the same category as Gostkowski or Gould. I'm fine with keeping Crosby on the roster until final cuts have to be made but the Packers should be able to find a kicker capable of performing at the same level for significantly less money pretty easily. Crosby mostly hasn't even been an average kicker during his career. As I've posted above kickers that have gone undrafted since 2016 have combined to hit on a higher percentage of field goals than Crosby has over the past three years since signing his new contract. If the Packers hold on to him they could have saved $14 million in cap space over four years while most likely getting the same production. Once again, opposing kickers have a better field goal percentage at Lambeau than Crosby since the Packers drafted him in 2007. [SIZE=3]The problem being that Crosby isn't a good kicker though. The Packers finally have to stop holding on to veterans not performing up to their contracts.[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
