Cundiff was considered a top 10 kicker, Gano was bottom third. It's an upgrade.

2. The fact that we are bemoaning a kicker move and the fate of Graham Gano speaks volumes to how stable and sane this offseason has been. It's nice to go into a season with little to no drama for once.
Well said Paintrain! Relax guys...if we're needing a kicker who's going to have to kick a lot of 50+ field goals, then that means the offense isn't as effective as it should be.
