Performance Analysis by Kicking Range

Short to Mid-Range Accuracy (20-39 Yards)

High vs. Low Performers: Short-Mid Range Consistency

Category	Rank	Kicker	20-29	30-39
High Performer	1	Ka'imi Fairbairn	8-8	11-11
High Performer	5	Will Reichard	6-6	9-9
Low Performer	10	Blake Grupe	9-9	10-12
Low Performer	7	Chase McLaughlin	6-6	9-11

In the short-to-mid range, elite kickers demonstrate near-perfect reliability. Fairbairn (ranked 1st overall) and Reichard (ranked 5th) converted every attempt under 40 yards, reinforcing why these distances are considered "automatic" for top-tier specialists. In contrast, lower-ranked kickers like Grupe and McLaughlin show noticeable drop-offs, particularly from 30-39 yards, where misses begin to accumulate despite similar attempt volume. This discrepancy highlights how small inefficiencies can separate league leaders from the middle tier.

Ka'imi Fairbairn - Short-Mid Range leader (Rank 1)

Long-Range Volatility (50+ Yards)

High vs. Low Performers: Long-Distance Risk

Category	Rank	Kicker	50+	Longest
High Performer	5	Will Reichard	11-13	62
High Performer	4	Brandon Aubrey	11-17	64
Low Performer	8	Tyler Loop	1-4	52
Low Performer	11	Wil Lutz	4-6	57

Long-range kicking introduces the greatest variance. Aubrey and Reichard attempt a high volume of 50+ yard kicks, suggesting strong leg strength and coaching confidence, even though accuracy declines compared to shorter distances. Lower-ranked kickers such as Loop struggle significantly from long range, converting only one of four attempts, which limits their strategic value in late-game or end-of-half scenarios.

Overall Efficiency vs. Volume

Accuracy Discrepancy Across Total Attempts

Category	Rank	Kicker	FGM	FGA	FG%
High Efficiency	11	Nick Folk	28	29	96.6%
High Volume	1	Ka'imi Fairbairn	44	48	91.7%
Low Efficiency	10	Blake Grupe	29	37	78.4%

High efficiency does not always correlate with high ranking. Nick Folk's elite accuracy is offset by lower attempt volume, while Fairbairn combines both volume and efficiency to lead the league. Conversely, Grupe's lower accuracy across a similar workload illustrates how missed opportunities compound over a season, directly impacting team scoring reliability.
