Are we kickerless again?

[SanAntonioSteelerFan]

Bad pre-season for injuries.

Is it Skippy time??

[SanAntonioSteelerFan]

Anyone hear anything yet?

It's Josh Scobee

[pfelix73]

Just heard they traded for Scobee.... Wonder what the details are? Should soon be out..

Traded? Wow. I agree, should be interesting. Who would we give up for a kicker?

Heard it was a late round draft pick for next year.

Heard it was a late round draft pick for next year.

And I just read that he comes with a $3million hit we must absorb: [url]http://www.behindthesteelcurtain.com/nfl-pittsburgh-steelers-news/2015/8/31/9232099/pittsburgh-steelers-pick-up-kicker-josh-scobee-via-trade-with-the[/url]

Nice signing. Looks like an upgrade over Sushi. According to cover32.com, Scobee ranked number 7 among kickers last year:

Thanks to fantasy football, most pro football fans actually know who Scobee is; otherwise, he would have languished in anonymity, given that he’s spent the past 10 years playing in the NFL’s version of purgatory – Jacksonville. But for the last decade, he’s been one of the game’s best kickers; he just hasn’t done it on the big stage. But he’s accurate (having missed eight kicks in three years) and can bomb (connecting from 55 yards out a season ago).

I'm waiting to see the confirmation - but if so, great signing!

Big difference kicking in the Sunshine State then kicking in Pittsburgh

@RapSheet: Josh Scobee will still make $3.45M in 2015 after the trade to #Steelers. PIT & #Jags worked out a deal for how to pay it. Jax'll pay some.

Steelers gave up a 6th round pick.

This is a good trade...got a good consistent kicker with a strong leg.

Is he one of those guys that kicks the ball out of the end zone so there is no ko return?

I don't like giving up a 6th rnd pick. AB was a 6th rnd pick. 80.8%, isn't that below the league average?

Just on % made, in 2014 Suisham was 6 and Scobee was 30. (Out of 37 kickers). That's horrid. And the reason he was available is because he was beaten out by a rookie this preseason. Steelers are getting old, used goods.
