4) Dan Carpenter, BUF

After jumping around from team to team, Dan Carpenter has now found a home with the Buffalo Bills and is making the most of it. His 84 percent completion percentage is one of the leagues highest and was even better in 2015. In the brisk air of Buffalo, Carpenter knocked in 34-38 good enough for 89.5 percent. Carpenter smashed in 6 field goals from 50 yards and above, including a 58 yarder.

Playing in the north-east as a kicker is no easy task. the 29-year-old has 10 field goals of 50 or more yards while with buffalo in two seasons and has one of the leagues biggest legs. Carpenter will continue to be a threat for many years.
