No. It is worth it on kickers.

You would be shocked how important it is on FG kickers.

Gremlin is 15 for 19 on FG's and 141 for 144 on XP's this season
Spangler is 9 for 11 on FG's and 159 for 159 on XP's this season

Doesn't look to be shockingly important at all.

The common belief is that Kicking is scripted; just like Handoffs to HBs.

As a result, Snap Reaction is meaningless to the script.

Sprinting, Quickness and Footwork (ala the physicals) can effect script timing, but skills don't.

So Snap Reaction on Kickers is thus useless.

Your belief system is flawed.

Snap Reaction makes a big difference from my experience(and cheap ass hell SP wise). The theory is that getting off the kick quicker reduces the pressure from the defense.

Honestly I'm unsure pressure even is a thing on kicks in terms of defenders closing in on the kicker. Just seems to be a roll rather than anything to do with the defense.

Almost everytime the defender breaks through and gets close to the kicker, the FG is missed. When the defender does not get close to the kicker, the FG is usually made. When the kicker has higher snap reaction, he gets the kick off faster.

I'm really interested in what all that Kicker can do with EB and Natural, lol.

I have had 3 4.2 speed defenders essentially run through kickers all the time and they generally make the kick. You are talking out of your ass.
