Let's compare two open builds.

Superstar player Season 11 FG% between the ranges of 0-49 is 78.8%
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/player_stats/92861

Regular player Season 11 FG% between the ranges of 0-49 is 78.4%
http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/player_stats/97549

The 2014 NFL average between the ranges of 0-49 is 87%
http://pfref.com/tiny/pQd72

The NFL kicker who kicked the most field goals, had an average of 94.4% from that same range.

There were even a few kickers who literally did not miss in that same range. A 100% average.
http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/TuckJu00.htm
http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/bryanmat01.htm

What's the TL;DR of this?

1) Nobody should ever waste a Superstar slot on a kicker over a DT or O-lineman
2) No team should ever waste cap space by signing a S* kicker.
3) Even at obscenely high levels, Kicker RNG is still ridiculous.
4) Corndog/Bort should buff how well a S* kicker can do.

I wonder if they would be a good bit better @ 100 morale like they used to be? The 50 morale starting point may impact kickers significantly.

That would make sense. If so, a change needs to be made even if the change only affects field goal kicking.

Kickers and Punters should just come with the team. That way they can make them normal at all levels and there wouldn't have to be a any 2 kicker nonsense.

I've felt like GA's kicker has been awful this season. He's 27/30 on 0-49 yard kicks though, so 90%. It's the 6/22 from 50+ that sucks. Seeing as how he's only got 56 FG Power though, I can't complain too much. We probably shouldn't let him try so many long kicks.

Kickers should JNGAF and be at 100 moral perpetually. The only thing that should hurt their moral is missing a kick. Kicking sucks enough as it is.

What does his FG accuracy/consistency/power and heart look like?

With Early Bloomer, I'd guess it's possible that he didn't build really well for caps on accuracy and consistency to 100?

I mean its not all 100 and stuff but damn, he should kicker better than a midschooler.
