Saints Kicker Spot Still Up in the Air

It’s too early to give either Martin Gramatica or rookie Taylor Mehlhaff an edge in the battle to become the Saints’ placekicker, but we hear there’s a real chance that both could end up on the roster. If that were to happen, it’s likely that Mehlhaff, a sixth-round pick, would handle kickoffs while Gramatica kicked field goals. The Saints are frustrated by the lack of success they’ve had with kickers in recent years and will be relieved if one of the two kickers emerges as a reliable option.
