Taylor Mehlhaff is a K?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If this guy doesn't forget how to kick once he starts playing in the NFL, the Saints may have the kicking spot wrapped up for the next 15 years....

Re: Taylor Mehlhaff is a K?

I like his economy of motion on FG's. He barely seems to move, yet the ball explodes off his foot. (maybe it's a broken-in ball) He seems to over extend on the KO's, but he should get stronger for another 2-3 years.

One more thing...i think this kid gets a chance to tee off on a KR or two this season...he should be fun to watch during all kicking duties...don't mess with the "haff"

Re: Taylor Mehlhaff is a K?

I could care what he "looks like" can he make kicks for points under pressure?

Thats all a kicker has to do, really.

haha but if he does make kicks..would u rather him look like a man-girl like gramatica...or the like f#@%ing beast like taylor mehlhaff lol....pick ur poison...the dude is a stud...he will hopefully be our starter for years to come....whether he can kick far or not is irrelevant cuz when he does kick he is very accurate....not too many kickers can kick from 55 yards accurately so he doesnt have ne thing to worry about there...its up to drew and our line to get him in range

Honestly, i really don't care what he "looks like"

If that's important to you, great. But you're pretty much "head over heels" for this guy already and he's never kicked in a real game before.

Sully looked good in a uniform as well. Lets just not get "carried away" ok?
