Survivor I - Nate Kaeding Commentary

NOTE: this draft was completed on 7/24

Positives - Top Kicking prospect of 2004. 80% FG conversion rate with a long of 53 yards. Young offense in the AFC West should lead to lots of scoring opportunities. 54/55 extra point attempts last season.

Negatives - Missed the filed goal that would have had the Chargers advance in the playoffs. The Chargers schedule is ridiculously difficult this season, with games on the road in NE, PHI, and IND. It will be tough for SD to repeat last season’s performance.

Draft Strategy - He’s a kicker, but I was targeting an AFC west kicker due to high scoring games. Elam, Janikowski, and Tynes were selected, so I’m happy to get Kaeding here.
