What could it hurt? http://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2015/10/ ... t-sign-me/

I wouldn't. Remember how awful he was in his last year here that lead to him getting released mid-season and Suisham coming in? And that was 5 years ago. Shayne Graham and Kai Forbath are 2 solid Kickers out there right now. Both have played more recently than Reed, and both have career FG percentages in the mid to high 80's.(Also higher than Reed.)

My question is were Graham and Forbath available during the preseason when we were looking? Why did we sign Scobee? How much did he get paid the last month? I could miss four FG's and PAT in a month. FOR SURE. I woulda done it for a lot less, too.
