I thought only Oakland did things like this.
They took Janikowski high, then followed up with a Punter high. Both turned out golden, but neither one or even the combination of both made them an amazing team.
Certain Positions just carry less weight. It was the Second Round, which has a fair Starter Rate coming out of it. Now obviously each Draft is different, but if they had landed a Starting ILB there, he'd make more impact over a Season than any Kicker in the League.
Which isn't to say Kickers aren't important... they are. But as mentioned, the difference between the BEST Kicker and the 16th Kicker in the NFL isn't the much.
