Yeah, it's bizarre the amount of pining that goes on over him. Most of them would be trying to run him out of town if he was still here, or making fun of the Bengals for giving nearly $4m/yr for a guy who is a career 82.2% kicker.
2020: 26th in FG%
2019: 13th in FG%
2018: 20th in FG%
2017: 17th in FG%
Bullock has an 85.0% FG rate over the last 4 years, including 2 top-10 seasons.
Over the last 3 years, Elliott has been 6-14 at 50+ while Bullock has been 6-13.
Elliott has been objectively worse than Bullock, and heck, I even agree it's probably time to try to upgrade from Bullock. Pining over a inferior performing overpaid guy is not the answer.
