Grupe

BG was 3 out of 3 and converted his1 extra point attempt against the Titans in his 1st NFL game. He Made a 52 yarder. The Saints won the game 16-15. Grupe scored 10 of the Saints 16 points. It could be said that the gravity of his kicks won that game.

Grupe was perfect in week 2 against the Panthers where he made both of his FG attempts and both of his extra points. He scored 8 of the Saints 20 points in that game. His kicks directly contributed to winning that game.

In week 5 against the Patriots BG made both of his attempts, each one over 50 yards. It was the 1st time in 19 years that a Saints kicker made 2 FGs of 50+ yards in the same game. He was named NFC Special Teams Player Of The Week.

So far this season, 7 kickers have attempted 5 or more FGs. Only 2 kickers have made more than 3 of them. The other 5 kickers made 3 of their attempts from 50+ yards.

Grupe is on pace to shatter the Saints Single Season Franchise Record for the most FGs made.

Who do you suggest the Saints should bring in to tryout?
Well I'm not a Pro-player scout for the NFL , but I'm sure there is someone on the Saints staff that is getting paid to really be up on all the up and coming kickers available. At the very least it would have been doing due diligence with this mini buy week to bring in a few guys. It's what a real HC would do. SP anyone ?
