If Bullock is better right now, which he has been overall based on what Jim O has said, then he should get the nod because he is in a better mental state overall and has experience. Elliot goes to p.s., as chances are teams won't pick him up. 

Also, kickers are different in that they can actually get better after a few years into the league, unlike other positions where it's rare to see a jump in performance a few years into a career. For all we know, Bullock can come out and have a pro bowl like season. 

I just dont get the hang up on Elliot. If he was drafted in the late 6th or 7th round where he probably should/could've been, would it even matter?

Some people seem to think every draft pick HAS to be the greatest player at their position ever or its a complete waste of a draft. They over value draft picks like always.  I don't care how we acquire players, draft, trade, free agency or CFAs.. It only matters what they do once they sign on the dotted line.
