Ourlads' Profile:

2016 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about KA'IMI FAIRBAIRN: UCLA, 5114 182 5.00. Four-year starter from Kailua, HI. Was the 2015 Lou Groza Award winner. The all-time leading scorer for the Pac-12 conference and UCLA with 413 points. The Hawaii native also added kickoff duties his last three years in school. His 60-yard field goal against the University of California was the longest in school history and the longest ever in a conference game. A right-footed soccer style kicker who has been consistent for four years. A pressure and poised athlete with mental toughness. Led the country in 2015 on kickoff average. Fairbairn kicked off 84 times, averaging 64.55 yards per kickoff and collected 59 touchbacks with a touchback percentage of 70.24. He kicked none out of bounds. Concluded his career for UCLA by nailing 41 straight field goal attempts from 35 yards or less. The first Bruin to tally over 100 points four consecutive years. Takes a consistent approach to the ball and is mechanically sound. A self-starter with a good work ethic and a competitive attitude. Keeps his head down during his approach, shows good leg snap and follow through. Above average leg strength to kick off. Gets the ball up quickly with a good rise. Kicked in mostly ideal conditions at UCLA and on the West Coast. His ability to handle bad weather, snow, and high winds is unknown. Needs to get a quicker rise on long distance 50+ yard field goal attempts. Could use more overall core strength to kick the longer field goal attempts. Fifth/sixth round. (A-31 1/4, H-9 1/4).
