Stephen Gostkowski: Agrees To 4-Year Deal

Gostkowski has agreed to a four-year contract that's worth approximately $17 million, ESPN's Mike Reiss reports.

Analysis:

Gostkowski won't have to play out this season under the franchise tag, though it really isn't such a bad thing for kickers. He doesn't have the same leg strength as some of his top positional peers, but between his team context and superb accuracy, Gostkowski still figures to be the first or second kicker selected in most drafts.
