John Hall's missed FG in the Seattle game certainly didn't help. Just something to consider.

That cut the Seattle lead to a touchdown just 3:01 into the final quarter. Then Josh Scobee fumbled the kickoff and kicker John Hall recovered, but Hall missed a 36-yard field-goal attempt that could have cut it to four.

I'm hoping we draft a kicker or punter in the low rounds and replace Hall or Frost. It's hard to have confidence in either guy right now.

no one in the draft this year is any good.

How can you say that? No one knows what the future holds for these youngsters. You might say, "The Redskins would be better off focusing on other needs, etc" but your post strikes me as an overstatement.

It also comes off as discourteous and dismissive.

i mean, no kickers had great college careers and none of the kickers this year are going above the 5th or 6th round and the guy we have (tyler jones) has a better shot of making our roster than any of the guys we could get.

after about the 15th time i have to repeat something like that though, its much fast to just say they aren't that good instead.

If you're offended i suggest you tell me who exactly is worth a pickup in the draft and why they'd be any better than the no-name kicker we already have instead of just telling me i shouldn't comment on a subject :P

It's not my place to say what you should or shouldn't comment on. I was merely suggesting that the tone was condescending--which is okay too.

My suggestion would be to keep Hall and Frost. I believe that length is less important than consistency. (And all the Rednecks go: That's what she said.)
