48 speed.

Still slow as crap. No meaningful tackles in his entire career. I think maybe none while he was actually a kicker. 36 tacking too.

Punter with 70 speed. 8 tackles in his career.

Edit: Forgot to add - I always 48 cap stamina on my P/K simply because it's not difficult to do so and still have a superb build.

In my experience its worthwhile to have 40 stamina at a bare minimum, but not generally worth spend much at all above 49. If you have a high speed attribute you may want more, however.

i just started one this season with our new freebie player. i'll watch him this season b4 rebuilding him on day 40 for the future. seems like they can really disrupt the BW even if they dont make the tackle, they influence the KR. basically, he's just going to be a KO specialist. altho i think we can make a stop just KO.

p sweet he isn't bound by any lanes. He just goes for it.

yeah, i was really surprised that he didnt have an actually lane. i guess the last time i paid any attention to the kicker was b4 angled KO were added. of course, the lack of a speed alg is going to hurt, but really, who cares as the kicker would be 1 dimensional anyways, playing only KO.

You can't specify that a kicker be kickoff-only, can you?

Yes, if your team never scores and he only kicks off once per game

Without stamina, punters and kickers might get leg fatigue

Actually, I think you can. If you put the Kickoff Only Kicker first in the K depth chart and the FG/XP Kicker second in the K depth chart, then put the Kickoff only Kicker as your PH (with no one else), then the KO Kicker will kick KOs, but he will be the PH, leaving the second K (the FG kicker) as the K for FGs and XPs.

It's been a long time, but if my memory serves me, I knew a team that tried this and it worked (at least from a depth chart point of view).

doesnt matter where you play the KO only kicker on xp/fg. i play mine at te1 (experimenting on another team to make sure it works 100%) and so far its worked every time. that said, there is 1 more thing that you have to do, but i dont want to give away all of my secrets
