As someone else pointed out in another thread, we could of won a lot more games last year if some kicks are made & I'm not talking about 50+ yards either. Whether or not our draft pick can fix that issue will be found out in due course
Its great we have our bread and butter in cooke who we know can consistently deliver each gamr with his punts
I feel like the Jags special teams this year are going to be a force to be reckoned with, we invested in free agency and the draft in specialists who should hopefully give us that edge
Hoping the draft pick pays off

McManus missed 2 kicks under 50 last year and none under 40

I don't mean to nit pick , but those 2 kicks were at crucial points if I remember.
The disaster game against Cleveland where Trevor got injured, didn't he miss 2 kicks to send it to OT & for a extra point ?

McManus missed 7 FGs from 40 or more yards. He was 16/23 from 40+

McManus missed a 48 yard FG vs the Bengals with 4:59 left in the 4th quarter, which would have put the Jaguars in the lead 31-28.
Missed it wide right.
The game went into overtime bc the Bengals went down and got a FG and then McManus made a FG after that which tied the game 31-31. Ridley caught a pass on the goal line but Anton Harrison was flagged for holding which forced the Jaguars to punt. Cincy gets the ball and goes down for a game winning FG.

This type of stat is misleading. He missed 2 FGs from between 40-49 yards (11 of 13). In fact he only missed those 2 FGs for all attempts under 50 yards. It was 50+ where he was 5 of 10 and his accuracy took a dive which isn't all that uncommon. You'd like better accuracy at 50+, but those guys aren't just wandering around on the street. He wasn't a bad kicker, he just had that one critical miss against the Bengals which contributed to us losing that game and by extension the division and a playoff berth. I vaguely recall there being mention of a bad handling of the snap by the holder on that one as well, but I could be mis-remembering.
Hopefully Cam Little has both the distance and accuracy working for him.
I sincerely hope we get a picture of Robinson, Cam Little, and Walker standing together with the the caption "Cam Cam Little Little"

Just need to find somebody named Walker Robinson to complete the circle. Baalke straight up playing games with the roster in plain sight.
