درباره این اپیزود
We show how the prospect compares to the top active FBS kickers.
It sounds like another ranking system? Do you use 5 or 6 stars?
Neither, our rating is based on actual results from 20,000 kicks collected from NFL and college play-by-play data.
Our kicking database is unlike any other because it compares actual FBS averages to evaluate where a prospect ranks. We use stats to rate kickers, not stars.
Simple Kicking has developed advanced metrics to help colleges correctly identify which prospects to evaluate further at camp. 1) We track kicks. 2) We break the data down. 3) We rank.
What’s the pitch?
Wrong sport… Compared to other positions, the window to evaluate kickers closes quickly. We have distilled many data points into a single score that identifies who has the consistency to kick at the next level.
Think of it this way.
Would you rather offer a scholarship to a kicker based on highlights OR 100s of attempts over their entire career?
What kinds of data does Simple Kicking evaluate?
Our goal is to see beyond the obvious. Since traditional metrics do not tell the whole story, we have created our own which have been validated by dozens of NFL and college coaches.
1) Point-production: a prospect’s ability to consistently make kicks in critical moments.
2) Pin-point precision: the distance (in feet) from the center of the goal posts to the location in which the ball crossed the uprights.
3) Punting, too: we estimate net yards based on multiple factors.
We'll go into the specific metrics down below.
