How can they be 42nd and 35th in a 32 team league? Behind non-roster players? That seems a little bit ludicrous.

I say bring in some FA competition, but almost certainly go with the current guys unless they are completely out-classed by somebody brought in. Crosby was decent last season; Masthay had an off year, but I'd expect him to snap back. Neither should be over the hill age-wise.

I'm not about to dump a kicker who is fine making his FGs over some kickoffs when most go through the end zone anyways.
