Add 7 yards for the distance between the snapper and the kicker and add 10 yards from the beginning of the endzone to the goal post. For example: a team at the 20 yard line would be kicking a 37 yard field goal.

Is it true that in the NFL a placekick or dropkick doesn't have to be considered a FG attempt?
By rule, if you kick the ball during a scrimmage down, it's called a "scrimmage kick." If a scrimmage kick off the ground goes through the uprights, it's a field goal. Technically, there is no rule that defines a field goal "attempt." You don't necessarily have to "attempt" a field goal when placekicking on a scrimmage down, but if your kick doesn't go through the uprights, the same rules apply as would for a missed field goal.
