Surely, there's some mention of this guy in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers thread but, goodness, can we devote a thread? With his college career, can't blame them for drafting him but in the second round after trading up?

Wikipedia wrote:The Tampa Bay Buccaneers drafted Aguayo with the 59th overall pick in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft. They acquired the pick in a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs, sending their third and fourth-round selections. Aguayo was the first kicker selected in the second round since Mike Nugent, who was drafted 47th overall in the 2005 NFL Draft by the New York Jets. On June 7, 2016, Aguayo signed his rookie contract, which included a $1.15 million signing bonus. In Week 11, Aguayo went 4-for-4 on field goals and was named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week.However, Aguayo finished the 2016 season with the worst field goal percentage in the NFL amongst kickers making more than five attempts.

In the 2017 off-season, the Buccaneers signed Nick Folk to compete with Aguayo; his $750,000 guarantee was more than Aguayo's 2017 salary.After missing a 47-yard field goal and an extra point in the Buccaneers' first preseason game, Aguayo was waived by the Buccaneers on August 12, 2017.
