Looks good. Where would you suspect a guy like this would go? Seems to me we always go the free agent, nobody wants them tryout route and have done pretty well with it. That way they come cheap and you can just throw them away when they start missing and grab a new one.

al davis probably already has a 1st round grade on him , but rarely do kickers / punters ever go before the 5th , but i guess its supply and demand. there does seem to be a shortage of reliable kickers in the league, plus stupid ass Al davis has raised the bar for kickers / punters contracts ( otherwise jeff reed might have gotten his extension.), so this guy might be a hot commodity come draft time. maybe he sneaks into the 4th.
i couldn't find any kickoff footage , but if he can get it into the endzone consistently , and the fact that he adds punter depth ( over 43 yd average this year ) , he may be an attractive option for the steelers ...
