Is this the offseason the Jaguars bring in some real competition for Josh Scobee?

#26

Quote:I'm not sure why this is even a debate.  Scobee is getting paid more than $4 million per year to do two things.  Put it between the uprights, and kick it through the end zone.  He struggled this past season.  He's going into the final year of his contract.  If the Jags can find a guy who gives them better production at a lower cost, why would they stick with him? 

 

He's not Mr. Automatic anymore.  This is the first season where you had to hold your breath every time he lined one up.  Meanwhile, guys like Vinatieri, Janikowski, Bryant, Succop, and every other kicker in the league have lower cap numbers. 

 

Scobee has the highest cap number in the league for kickers, and he's not in the top 10 of any stat used to measure kicker's success.

 

I don't think Scobee is as secure as many in this thread do.
 

And as good as Vinatieri is, the Colts made a mistake in keeping him over Cody Parkey. Parkey, whom they traded to Philadelphia for a since jettisoned running back will be going to the Pro Bowl next week.
