You've heard of Scott Blanton, Brett Conway, Jose Cortez, Nick Novak, and Shaun Suisham, no?

Why use him as an example? Simple...
David Akers is a good kicker - maybe even a very good kicker - and has been one for about 10 years now. He was the "property" of the Redskins and they did not recognize what they had so they started down the path of Blanton, Conway ... Suisham, Gano. Had the coaches recognized what they had in hand, things would have been different in the Skins' kicking game.
