Kickers for NFL Week 2 - Fanduel

Make or Break From a Kicker?

Fanduel Plays of the Week: Kickers

Steven Hauschka - $5,100
Value at the kicking position in Fanduel usually means finding the $5,000 price kicker with the most upside. An extra $400 - $600 spent on a wide receiver or running back can, and does, make a huge difference.

However I'm going to up my normal cost by $100 since I think the Seahawks will score a lot of points, but be forced to make a lot of field goals. That $100 may just make a 5 or 6 point difference and that could be huge.

Projections: 4 field goals and 3 extra points.

Mason Crosby  - $5,000
The Packers lost a thriller of a game last week, but I suspect that week two will be kinder to them as they face The Redskins on their home turf.

This is great value. While I fully suspect RGIII to improve his game in week two, I still think the Packers are way to potent to be kept out of scoring position. Crosby is rated at the bottom of the barrel by Fanduel. I suspect this time next week, he'll leap into the $5,200 kicker range. Get him cheap while you can.

Projections: 3 field goals and 3 extra points.

Sebastian Janikowski - $5,000
The kicker with the linebacker body, and attitude, goes up against one of the leagues worst teams in the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Jacksonville is awful and Janikowski has a cannon leg. That makes for a very nice return on investment in kicking land.

Projections: 2 field goals and 3 extra points.

Other Solid Options: Greg Zuerlein, Alex Henery and Dan Bailey all at $5,000.
