Agreed. Kickers don't have a learning curve or disrupt team chemistry either. They just kick and get ignored.
Though I'm also not opposed to giving Suisham a shot.
Matty, on your note about Josh Brown not being available, this got me thinking it's perfectly possible that the players currently listed as eligible for free agency in March may be cut in half by the time March rolls around. With so many teams absolutely flush with cap space, a lot of teams will be able to keep their guys if they so choose. We might see a lot of the quality free agents reupping with their teams over the next six weeks. That applies to every position, including kicker.
