Rams rookie Greg Zuerlein is the first player in NFL history with two field goals of at least 58 yards in the same game. Discovered at small-school Missouri Western State, Zuerlein is perfect on 12 field-goal attempts this season. His big leg has earned him the nickname "Legatron" to go with "Greg the Leg" and "Young G.Z." If Zuerlein is available in leagues that award points for distance, he's worth picking up this week.

I think I have him in 27 or 28 of my 30 leagues on Flea plus all 3 on ESPN. Drafted him in some, others I picked him up just before kickoff of WEEK 1. The only 1 or 2 I didn't I had either old man Hanson, Bryant or Hartley. A buddy of mine texted with me for 2-3 hours during his pay league draft and I told him to pick Greg the Leg in the last round and he was like WHO??? I said just trust me! This past weekend when he boomed the 60 yarder and the 58, my buddy texted me again with "Greg... THE... LEG!

I hear ya man. I am a Ravens fan. He's like a Stover with distance

Why? Is Stover very very accurate?

hell yeah, i am not exaggerating when I say we would have never won the super bowl without him. He had a 100% average in 16 of his 19 seasons and the remaing 3 he had an average of no less than 96%
