DRAFT TRACKER 2018

Kicker with good size and a strong leg for both field goal and kickoff duties. Carlson put together two very strong efforts in 2015 and 2016, but struggled with his accuracy in 2017. He has the talent and mechanics to be taken on the third day of the draft and become an early contributor as long as his ball striking and confidence are where they need to be.

Pineiro has just two seasons of collegiate kicking, but his consistency and accuracy from 50-plus yards will immediately open NFL eyes. Pineiro's ability to handle kickoff duties and bang touchbacks only strengthen his cause.

Experienced kicker with decent accuracy under 50 yards, but troubling accuracy beyond that mark. Badgley's inability to hammer kickoffs with consistent leg strength will also hurt his cause.

While he's smallish, he has enough leg to handle NFL duties. While accuracy is a strength, he still has to prove that he can hit the 50-plus yard field goals at a more consistent rate. His ability on kickoffs combined with consistent ball striking give him a shot to hear his name called.

While Drew Brown has the same willingness to go tackle that his brother Kris had as a kicker at Nebraska and in the NFL, he doesn't have the same leg strength. Unless Brown can get into a camp and prove he can hit kickoffs deeper and make 50-plus yard kicks on a more regular basis, he is unlikely to have a pro career.
