Zane Gonzalez

Arizona State
6-0

6-7
Can absolutely boom the ball, converting 7 of 9 kicks of more than 50 yards, with 75 percent of his kickoffs going for touchbacks. Connected on 96 of 110 career attempts, but half his games were in Arizona. Can he kick in Green Bay?
Jake Elliott
K
Memphis
5-9
167
7-FA
Tremendously accurate, hitting 78 percent of his field goal attempts. Deadly from in close, going 202 for 202 on PATs and never missing inside 31 yards. Broke Stephen Gostkowski’s school record with 445 points. Size is a concern.


They both look good - but, as this article says, Gonzalez had benefit of kicking in Arizona for most of his games.  Also, - as an aside - one of my college friends just told me via text that Elliott interned at her office in Memphis and that he is a really good guy.  

Thanks! Rep.
