Let\u2019s take a quick look in Dave B\u2019s Top 10 Kicker Rankings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Stephen Gostkowski NE<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Consistently finishes inside the top 2 in terms of Fantasy points \u2013 no reason to think differently about this year. He\u2019s accurate, he can nail the long FGs and he plays in an elite offense. There\u2019s not much to not like here.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63753&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Adam Vinatieri IND<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Is another guy that plays in an offense that will score a ton of points this year. He missed just 1 FG last season and also has the benefit of playing indoors. Vinatieri has finished inside the top 3 in Fantasy kickers the last two years \u2013 no reason to think a dropoff is imminent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Steven Hauschka SEA<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Reliable guy playing in an offense that got better in the offseason. Hauschka rarely misses when he gets the chance \u2013 he will get his chances this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Connor Barth DEN<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Plays in one of the highest scoring offenses in the game and also has the mile-high air which is a factor, especially for field goals over 50 yards. He averaged almost 13 points per game in the 5 games he played for this club last year \u2013 impressive.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=66479&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Justin Tucker BAL<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>It starts becoming a bit of a crap-shoot after #4. Tucker has anointed himself as one of the most accurate kickers of all time \u2013 89.8% the last three years and he had 4 kicks of 50+ yards last year. Consistency and accuracy make Tucker an easy top 5.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Cody Parkey PHI<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Made the Pro-Bowl last season while scoring 150 points. He was 4-4 from 50+ yards as well. Philadelphia will score some points this year for sure and Parkey will do his part.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Matt Prater DET<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Made 21 field goals in 11 games last year. No longer will he be converting extra points like he did in Denver, Prater will be called upon to hit FGs when Detroit\u2019s offense inevitably bogs down.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Matt Bryant ATL<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Kicking indoors in what should be a pretty good offense is a recipe for decent Fantasy success. He\u2019s accurate and consistent averaging 8.8 Fantasy points the last three years. Bryant is #8 but could finish top 3.<\/p>\n<p>[dfads params=&#8217;groups=63752&amp;limit=1&amp;return_javascript=0&#8242;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. Dan Bailey DAL<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>By now you have gotten the idea I love kickers that play indoors for prolific offenses \u2013 Bailey fits that bill. Add in the fact that he has hit 11 of his last 14 from beyond 50 yards and Bailey is an easy top 10 pick.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Dan Carpenter BUF<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>Made a league-second best 34 field goals last year \u2013 Buffalo\u2019s offense just couldn\u2019t convert TDs. With an improved offense in Buffalo this year, Carpenter will get even more chances to thrive. He was also 6-for-8 from 50 and beyond.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FAN DUEL &#8211; The leader in One-Day fantasy Sports &#8211; Join Now <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/go\/fanduel\">Click Here<\/a>!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>The 2015 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.capperspicks.com\/nfl\/\">NFL futures betting<\/a> season is right around the corner!
