Fantasy Kicker Rankings Week 3 Who to start sit at kicker in fantasy football

So long, Rodrigo Blankenship — you and your rec specs are no longer part of weekly fantasy kicker rankings. Harrison Butker is also «questionable» to return to our Week 3 edition, shaking things up at the top. Who knew kicker would be so exciting this early in the season?OK, it’s not exciting at all, but both Blankenship’s demotion and Butker’s injury actually mattered to some owners last week. That’s more than we can say for most kickers right now, as most fantasy owners are still in wait-and-see mode with their kicker, regardle s of how they’ve fared in the first two weeks.That’s probably the right strategy. The more proven kickers should bounce back a suming they’re on decent teams. Every year, we see a couple breakouts, and early on, Cade York (vs. Steelers in Week 3) and Riley Patterson (@ Chargers) might be on that trajectory. Beyond them, Greg Joseph (vs. Lions) and Austin Seibert (@ Vikings) also outperforming preseason expectations. Kicker performances can fluctuate wildly from week-to-week, but these are still guys to watch if they continue getting opportunities.WEEK 3 PPR RANKINGS: | | | Erik Karlsson Women Jersey | Plenty of guys should bounce back from poor opening games. Matt Prater (vs. Rams), Matt Gay (@ Cardinals), Justin Tucker (@ Patriots), and Tyler Ba s (@ Dolphins) should all start getting more scoring opportunities soon, but the good news with all of these guys is there will usually at least be PATs. Also, Gay and Prater kick indoors this week, which is always a plus.WEEK 3 STANDARD RANKINGS: | | | | Greg Joseph (vs. Lions), Patterson (@ Chargers), Butker (@ Colts), and Dustin Hopkins (vs. Jaguars) are the other notable kickers playing in stadiums with a roof in Week 3. One way or another, they should have optimal kicking conditions.WEEK 3 DFS LINEUPS: | | We still can’t say much about matchups in general, especially kicker matchups, but as we learn more, we can begin to tailor our rankings. For now, we’re focusing more on the kickers themselves and their offenses. This position is always a coin flip, so you’re always best off avoiding bad weather and trusting a kicker on a decent offense. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, but at least you’re giving yourself the best chance a high floor.WEEK 3 DFS: | We’ll be updating our kicker rankings as needed throughout the week, so Brandon Mashinter Women Jersey check back for the latest changes.WEEK 3 FANTASY PICKS: | | RankPlayer1Matt Gay, Rams @ Cardinals2Justin Tucker, Ravens @ Patriots3Tyler Ba s, Bills @ Dolphins4Ryan Succop, Buccaneers vs. Packers5Dustin Hopkins, Chargers vs. Jaguars6Daniel Carlson, Raiders @ Titans7Matt Prater, Cardinals vs. Rams8Greg Joseph, Vikings vs. Lions9Evan McPherson, Bengals @ Jets10Brandon McManus, Broncos vs. 49ers11Younghoe Koo, Falcons @ Seahawks12Jake Elliott, Eagles @ Commanders13Cade York, Browns vs. Steelers14Wil Lutz, Saints @ Panthers15Riley Patterson, Jaguars @ Chargers16Robbie Gould, 49ers @ Broncos17Mason Crosby, Packers @ Buccaneers18Nick Folk, Patriots vs. Ravens19Matt Ammendola, Chiefs @ Colts20Jason Sanders, Dolphins vs. Bills21Greg Zuerlein, Jets vs. Bengals22Randy Bullock, Titans vs. Raiders23Joey Slye, Commanders vs. Eagles24Austin Seibert, Lions @ Vikings25Ka’imi Fairbairn, Texans @ Bears26Eddy Pineiro, Panthers vs. Saints27Graham Gano, Giants vs. Cowboys28Chris Boswell, Steelers @ Browns29Chase McLaughlin, Colts vs. Chiefs30Jason Myers, Seahawks vs. Falcons31Brett Maher, Cowboys @ Giants32Cairo Santos, Bears vs. TexansWe’re proud to offer SN Fantasy readers an exclusive look at Draft Sharks award-winning projections and rankings every week.
