He has also been successful on 99-of-100 PATs for 351 career points. In 2007, Gould hit 31-of-36 field goal attempts (86.1 percent), adding 33 PATs for 126 points. A year earlier, Gould reached the Pro Bowl and was named a first-team All Pro for Chicago after finishing second overall in the NFL in scoring and first among kickers with 143 points, converting 32-of-36 (88.9 percent) field goal attempts and all 47 PATs.

Fantasy Analysis
Gould is a solid kicker and worth taking in the latter rounds of most leagues. The Bears offense won't be very good in 2008, but Gould will still get his share of chances and should be viewed as a decent starting option or a solid replacement for the bye weeks. (Updated 05/12/2008).
