There are 5 kickers that are 35+ in 2019, just 1 made >$4M. The average was $3.7M, which Crosby made $3.6M. They're not going to pay him more, they're either going to replace him or give him the same deal. He didn't do anything amazing that he's earned a big raise. He had a good year, second lowest number of attempts in his career but the highest made %, good number of touchbacks and XP's made, but he doesn't need to be paid like an elite kicker. 

I gotta disagree. With all the crappy kickers that pop up every year in the NFL, the guys you can count on are going to get paid. The Packers (or someone) will be paying him over $4 million a year. I hope it's GB. We have been damn lucky with 3 long careers of reliable kickers. I don't want to see that turn into an adventure until it needs to be. Salaries are trending up, not down, and that will include kickers.
