Ok, I won’t beat around the bush here… Kickers are essentially irrelevant in fantasy football and should be left as one of your last draft picks. Sure there are some studs like Money Bag McPherson and Justin Tucker, but at the end of the season, all kickers for the most part average out the same in points so don’t stress at this position. If you want to overthink it, go with kickers on teams that have high powered offenses and who have high rezone rates as well as plays in oppositions territory. You don’t need it, but here’s the rankings for kickers this year:
- Justin Tucker, BAL
- Evan McPherson, CIN
- Matt Gay, LAR
- Tyler Bass, BUF
- Daniel Carlson, LV
- Harrison Butker, KC
- Matt Prater, ARI
- Brandon McManus, DEN
- Dustin Hopkins, LAC
- Nick Folk, NE
- Jake Elliott, PHI
- Ryan Succop, TB
- Rodrigo Blankenship, IND
- Greg Zuerlein, NYJ
- Greg Joseph, MIN
- Chris Boswell, PIT
- Robbie Gould, SF
- Randy Bullock, TEN
- Younghoe Koo, ATL
- Jason Sanders, MIA
- Jonathan Garibay, DAL
- Will Lutz, NO
- Mason Crosby, GB
- Graham Gano, NYG
- Ka’imi Fairbairn, HOU
- Joey Slye, CAR
- Jason Meyers, SEA
- Cade York, CLE
- Austin Seibert, DET
- Cairo Santos, CHI
