Kickers can be such a pain. Not only can they cost your team the game by missing a critical kick, but they can also be the difference in close fantasy football games despite being wildly unpredictable. Just like in real life, kickers are awesome when they put up points and help your team win. Consistency from kickers is hard to come by, but here’s our top 15 ranked for this coming weekend.
As usual, I (ZT) was joined in the rankings by Steve Copps (SC) and Jeffrey Littrell (JL) who are contributors for FantasyCPR. We ranked our top 15 with NR (not ranked) counting for 20 for averaging purposes.

I'm an avid Boston sports fan and fantasy sports enthusiast. When I'm not blogging, I serve as Audio and Video producer as well as High School History teacher at Harvest Ministries on the island of Guam. The 14-hour time difference can make things challenging, but I'll play any fantasy sports just about anytime I can.
