It’s not every offseason where an NFL team tries to replace its all-time scoring leader.
The Packers did that with 38-year-old fan favorite Mason Crosby. The Packers kicker, who was taken in the sixth round of the 2007 NFL Draft, is No. 1 on the Packers all-time scoring list with 1,918 points — 864 points ahead of second place kicker Ryan Longwell.
The Packers decided it was time to move on and just like 16 years ago, drafted a kicker in the sixth round hoping to strike it rich. So now legions of people are pinning their hopes to the right leg of Anders Carlson.
