The person is offering me: Robbie Gould - Kicker
for my Adam Vinatieri - Kicker
Should I accept the trade?

No, because Adam is on a more stable consistent team.

Look at it this way.
The Colts are probably going to move the ball up and down the field and score touchdowns much more than they will field goals.
Yes, Vinatieri is an awesome kicker, but how many field goals is he going to attempt with that powerful offense?
The Bears are a defensive team with a powerful ball control offense. Most of their touchdowns are going to be 1 and 2 yard runs at the goal line.
So in a ball control offense, the kicker will get more field goal attempts because there will be more situations that they don't make the 1st down while they are in field goal range.
I say make the trade just because the situation Gould is in, he will get more attempts than Vinatieri.
Vinatieri will make alot of extra points, but they are only one point.

The thing with kickers is that it is impossible to determine who is going to have a good season or not. Therefore, the best draft picks would be the kickers who are the most accurate. There both great kickers, but because the other player is making the offer, make a counter offer to get a bench player on his team that you want for a bench player on your team that you don't want in addition to the kickers.

that's a tough decision because there both kickers that have made a heavy impact in the NFL. However, i think you should choose Gould for his youth, and ability to kick 50 yards

yes...gould has more chance of attempting those field goals then the colts offence because you know peyton and company will dominate the td redzone game...so vineteri wont have as much chances of kicking the ball there at indy...
