Waste a draft pick on a highly touted kicker. He gets injured. What comes next should be no surprise to anyone. It's the Kyle Lynch playbook. Gould brought back while moody never gets chance to show his talent. He gets traded for a 7th round pick. And the search for a long term kicker starts anew. Rinse and repeat….

Would be kinda amusing though if we traded a 7th for a kicker who becomes the long term answer and Moody gets Purdy'ed essentially.

We did trade a 7th for a kicker, Zane Gonzalez and he's hurt too lol

This situation right now is yet another reason why teams shouldn't draft kickers early. If Moody was UDFA he could just be cut and that's that.

CRAP. I wanted Hopkins. We should've made that trade IMO. It sounds like we are going to go the PS route.

In that case, Moody goes to short term IR and we're just gonna PS someone from the leftovers that doesn't get picked up, and roll with Moody once he's healthy. Would've rather gone with a cheap, proven option.

Moody was going to be drafted, probably soon after we selected him

Hard to kind of go with a experienced guy, unless we are saying we have seen enough from Moody. I mean would you trade for Hopkins to kick for a game? What happens when Moody comes back?

I probably would've redshirted Moody if we got a guy like Hopkins, then had him compete in year two.

Hopkins only cost a 7th just as I said he would too!

if Moody is it great, if he isn't we move on. I think he probably deserves a shot to kick in the regular season, and if it sucks we go from there. So the way I see it, we need maybe a 1 week or 2 week fill in, depending on how long Jake is out. Zane would be it, but he is also out.
