So from what I've gathered this is what it's looking like. Pap does the 30 maybe 35 yard and in and JK is everything else. JK kicks a nice pretty kickoff but I am wondering if they will enforce some kind of a kick count. Not sure but the above seems like what they are going towards.

I've always wondered about this. Does punting 4-5 times a game really wear your leg out? QB's throw it 30-40 times a game with their arm. Other players are out there 80-90 plays. Why is too much for a kicker to punt, kickoff and do FG's? I mean total, that might mean 15 kicks a game? Maybe I just don't understand how this works. If Paps handles extra points and short FG's--that might be 8-10 kicks a game for JK.

So is Pap pretty reliable if the LOS is the 15 or closer?

If that's the case, unless it is a last play to win or lose decision I'd be completely satisfied with using him on those kicks, going for it if the LOS is the 15-30, and just punting anything further out.
