As soon as they do, he's gonna start missing like Moody

No he's one of the most accurate in NFL history and he's not Moody. Further it's not as easy to find one of the top percentage guys in NFL history. So if you have him and he wants to be on your team you sign him. Fixes the kicker problem for years and we can concentrate on other things.

Yup. Can't let this dude hit free agency and have other teams up the price point. 3 year minimum should've been done yesterday

I would do 3 years for $10 million right now. Solves the kicker problem and we can concentrate on better things. He's Aubrey with a little less leg strength. You extend that.

why would you pay a kicker when you literally saw how easy it is to pick up a good kicker off the street ?

It's not easy to find one with the top FG percentage in NFL history. Those top few are hard to find and we got one. We struggled for years with that on this team. Now we got him. You sign and extend him. He's happy here and solves kicker. You won't find a near 90% guy. They don't grow on trees.
