Mathew Sims

Northern Illinois has been a hotbed for field-goal kickers in recent years. Huskies kickers tend to attempt high volumes of both field goals and extra points. Sims attempted 28 field goals last season, hitting 20 (71.4 percent), and made 64-of-66 extra-point attempts. In 2010, Northern Illinois kickers attempted 30 field goals and 67 extra points. This trend seems likely to carry into 2012, and if it does, that means an accurate Sims could have notably high value.
