Blog Article
We're over a quarter of the way through the fantasy football regular season, and even though four games hardly represent a "large sample size," it's pretty much all we have to go on right now. Sure, we'll still factor in past performance and overall talent, but we have to react to new trends and developments. Our Week 5 fantasy kicker rankings reflect that, as no one is getting a free pa s.If a kicker isn't getting many opportunities (looking at you, Daniel Carlson and Evan McPherson) or making good on the ones they are getting (ahem, Justin Tucker), then they have to move down. To be fair to Tucker, his mi ses have both come from 50-plus yards (including one from 60-plus), but nonethele s, fantasy's "consensus" No. 1 kicker simply isn't producing like it this year.Does that mean you should cut Tucker (or Carlson, or whoever else you drafted)? No, of course not. Either one could easily go five-for-five with a 50-yarder this week. We know how talented both are. However, you should weigh all of your options. There's no need to continue to starting a subpar kicker when there are potentially higher-floor options widely available.MORE: The Browns, Chargers, Buccaneers, and Seahawks Hale Hentges Jersey are on bye in Week 5, which takes away two kickers (Jason Myers, Cameron Dicker) owned in over 50 percent of Yahoo leagues. Myers has been among the top kickers all season, so he's a real lo s, but his owners should not hold him -- or any kicker -- through the bye.WEEK 5 PPR RANKINGS: | | | | Pick someone else up, and if you really want Myers back, you can likely pick him up as a free agent ahead of Week 6.WEEK 5 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | The top five kickers in the overall rankings entering Week 4 comprise our top five in Week 5 (though not in the same order). Jake Elliott (@ Rams in Week 5) gets the top spot thanks to a game in a stadium with a roof (even though SoFi Stadium is technically open-air), and he's followed by Brett Maher (vs. Eagles), who will be also be kicking in that game.Two more kickers from the same game, Brandon Aubrey (@ 49ers) and Jake Moody (vs. Cowboys), are also in our top five. They're sandwiched around Tyler Ba s (vs. Jaguars in London), who remains perfect on the season.WEEK 5 FANTASY ADVICE: | | | Maher (vs. Eagles) and Aubrey (@ 49ers) are both owned in fewer than 50 percent of fantasy leagues, so grab them if they're available in yours, but with seven games in stadiums with a roof, there is no shortage of safer-than-usual sleepers. Matt Gay (vs. Titans), Matt Prater (vs. Bengals), Nick Folk (@ Colts), and Ka'imi Fairbairn (@ Falcons) are also indoors, widely available, and entered Week 4 among the top-12 overall kickers this season.Riley Patterson (vs. Panthers) and Eddy Pineiro (@ Lions) and worth considering if Tavon Austin Jersey you don't want to worry about weather, but chances are, you won't need to dig that deep.We always have to point out when kickers are in the thin air of Denver. Wil Lutz (vs. Jets) and Greg Zuerlein (@ Broncos) get the honors this week, so expect some 50-yard FGs in that game.We'll be updating these kicker rankings throughout the week, so check back for the latest player movement and analysis.WEEK 5 DFS: | | | Rank Player1 Jake Elliott, Eagles @ Rams2 Brett Maher, Rams vs. Eagles3 Brandon Aubrey, Nic Weishar Jersey Cowboys @ 49ers4 Tyler Ba s, Bills vs. Jaguars5 Jake Moody, 49ers vs. Cowboys6 Matt Gay, Colts vs. Titans7 Justin Tucker, Ravens @ Steelers8 Younghoe Koo, Falcons vs. Texans9 Matt Prater, Cardinals vs. Bengals10 Wil Lutz, Broncos vs. Jets11 Nick Folk, Titans @ Colts12 Harrison Butker, Chiefs @ Vikings13 Evan McPherson, Bengals @ Cardinals14 Daniel Carlson, Raiders vs. Packers15 Greg Zuerlein, Jets @ Broncos16 Ka'imi Fairbairn, Texans @ Falcons17 Cairo Santos, Bears @ Commanders18 Eddy Pineiro, Panthers @ Lions19 Chris Boswell, Steelers vs. Ravens20 Jason Sanders, Dolphins vs. Giants21 Blake Grupe, Saints @ Patriots22 Chad Ryland, Patriots vs. Saints23 Anders Carlson, Packers @ Raiders24 Greg Joseph, Vikings vs. Chiefs25 Riley Patterson, Lions vs. Panthers26 Joey Slye, Commanders vs. Bears27 Graham Gano, Giants @ Dolphins28 Brandon McManus, Jaguars vs. BillsWe're proud to offer SN Fantasy readers an exclusive look at Draft Sharks award-winning projections and rankings every week.
