JAFBF Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Browns selected K Gonzales from AZ State. One of the most prolific Kickers in College: 6'1"202 lbs Arizona State 2 POS RK 321 OVR RK 33 GRADE What He BringsGonzalez is the all-time FBS career record-holder for most field goals with 96 and holds the FBS record for points by a kicker with 494. He is coming off a stellar senior season, and he's versatile enough to handle the kickoff duties in addition to place-kicking duties. -- Steve Muench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calfoxwc Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 really smart. The Browns are the only team in the league that maneuvered for three immediate dramatic impact starters picked in the first round. That is priceless. even brilliant.

JAFBF Posted April 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I really do like this pick. 7th Rounders are such a gamble, but this actually has value in getting the best Kicker in the Draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calfoxwc Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 What's that got to do with the kicker? they started out brilliant picks, and even picked a terrific kicker later. Even added the DL that Tour and I had in our mock drafts...at least before I changed it.... The kicker pick in the icing on the cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 I know Gonzo has a 50-yd+ FG-range, but how is he on KO touchbacks? Does he have enough power and control to elevate KOs for more hang time and inside-the-20 pins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAFBF Posted April 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 Analysis Strengths Has a powerful lower body and gets good trajectory on long-distance kicks. Has continued to add size and leg strength. Nailed 13 or 15 kicks of 40-plus yards this season including seven of nine from 50-plus. Kicks have desired end over end rotation. Finished career as the 24th most accurate kicker in FBS history. Banged kickoffs into touchbacks at a rate of 75 percent over the last two seasons. Has good operation time with hasty approach to strike the ball. His obsessive-compulsive disorder helps to create an orderly approach that has in part led to his success. Weaknesses Uses altered follow through for shorter kicks. Tends to short-leg shorter kicks, causing some inconsistencies with his accuracy. Takes questionable angles in his pursuit of kick returners. Has allowed three kick returns for touchdowns over last two seasons. Kickoff hang-time was slightly below average. Draft Projection Round 3-4 NFL Comparison Dustin Hopkins Bottom Line Self-made, four-year starter who has steadily increased his kickoff distance and range as a field goal kicker. As the most prolific field goal kicker in FBS history, Gonzalez has a good chance of being drafted and becoming an instant starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tour2ma Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 "Banged kickoffs into touchbacks at a rate of 75 percent over the last two seasons. Bottom Line: ... Gonzalez has a good chance of being drafted and becoming an instant starter. Thanks for the legwork... combine this touchback clip with his reportedly high, FG trajectory and I think we have hang time options. But isn't every drafted Kicker expected to start? <--- #rhetorical Obsessive compulsive disorder? A term you don't often see in a football player analysis. OCD? yeah... you know me.

I despised watching too damn many kickoff touch backs (39 of 66) resulting in our opponents getting a free trip to the 25. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
