We need 40-50 yard consistency, plus the ability to hit the 50+ yarder on occasion. I don't know that we have that in Suisham, and we owe it to ourselves to test the market in the off season to see if anybody is available.
I don't believe bringing in some other kickers and choosing the best one is a bad idea, but I wouldn't make that an area of concern over some other glaring concerns right now for us..which is the secondary and adding depth to our defensive line. Getting pro bowl kickers are few and far between anyways. I don't believe we have seen enough of Suisham to say he just isn't cutting it, but what little I have seen from him has been pretty good. Heck, Novak or Hall wasn't even hittin' the ones inside 40 yards, let alone outside 40+. Suisham has, at least in the limited amount of times we've seen him. Which in my opinion, I'd rather just see him out there when he comes in to kick the PAT....lol!
