Let's see what this guy can do, I hope he's the solution for a few seasons.

Graham Gano has a gigantic leg. Watched him for the past few years at Florida State. He can kill the ball. We shall see.

Who called it? Being a recent graduate of Florida State, I attended most of Gano's games and he was a stud on all aspects of the kicking game.

As I said before, the reason he wasn't drafted was because they said his trajectory angle was too low and that it was thought that his kicks would be blocked although he was thought to be the top kicker in the draft.

Looks like I can actually agree with a Gator for once (GMScud)

Yes. Hopefully he can translate his solid college career into the pros. In the best scenario we've found a good young franchise kicker. In the worst scenario we give the promising youngster a live-action audition at the end of a lost season.

I like this move.

Re: Suisham released, Gano new kicker

Feel bad for Suisham but you can't miss 23 yarders if you plan on kicking in the NFL.

He single handedly lost us the cowboys game and the saints game. I don't feel bad for him. He has been mediocre at best for us during his career, and he started off well for us this year then the wheels fell off. Good ridance!

He started off well because he wasn't required to make a clutch kick.

How can you say he single handedly lost us the Dallas game when our O did not score a single TD. He helped but it was not all on him.

Because if he hit a simple kick, game was over. He missed two, one that should have been hit no matter what. The game was in our hands until he shanked it.
