Greg Zuerlein, kicker, St. Louis Rams
Zuerlein is a rising star as a rookie. A sixth-round pick in April's draft who wasn't invited to the combine, Zuerlein has shown off a monster leg this season, setting a Rams record with kicks of 58 and 60 yards in a Week 4 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He also became the first player in NFL history to make kicks of 50-plus yards and 60 yards in the same contest. Zuerlein has made all 12 field goals attempted; I think he's better than Hall of Famer Jan Stenerud and current Raiders kicker Sebastian Janikowski were as rookies.

Did anybody think he was going to miss that 60 yarder?

I honestly didn't.

Nope. And have you ever heard a crisper thud when a kicker boots the ball? This is not just another Janikowski type with a massive leg and body. He just seems like a kicking machine. Almost like a flaw in the ball is more likely to make the ball go astray than his motion.
