I kind of thought last year we might have brought Anderson in to work with Mehleoff (spelling) since they were both left footed kickers and Anderson was wanting to be the oldest kicker but that never happened but I can see why we're holding on to both of them for the time being with other teams looking for kickers including the Giants.

And if you count Morestead we are carrying three kickers. That's fine for now, so let's just hope no one gets hurt.
