Too many Fantasy Football players don't put enough thought into drafting kickers. Even though they are the final picks in your draft, you should not simply just go for names you recognize or select a kicker at random. The better kickers are capable of boosting Fantasy teams to victories at any time.
Scott Engel supplies in-depth Fantasy kicker rankings with key drafting tips that assure you will make that final pick with confidence. Engel is an inaugural member of the Fantasy Sports Writers Association's Hall of Fame and has been a premier analyst and Fantasy personality for 25 years. He is a four-time FSWA Award Winner and 10-time nominee. In 2020, Scott was a finalist for the FSWA Fantasy Football Writer of the Year Award, which he also won previously.
In addition to being the Fantasy writer for the Seattle Seahawks' official site since 2012, Engel has appeared on The Athletic, SiriusXM FantasySports Radio, ESPN.com, NFL.com, the Associated Press, Yahoo Sports, SI.com, the New York Post, USA Today, RotoBaller, and of course, CBSSports.com.
Now Engel has provided his 2021 Fantasy kicker rankings and draft pointers, exclusively for SportsLine members. He goes 40 deep at the position to illustrate potential positional battles and help Best Ballers who need to draft multiple kickers.
We can tell you Engel is extremely high on Jason Sanders of Miami. And a massive shocker: Green Bay's Mason Crosby, who is a regularly drafted starter at the position, didn't even crack the top 15.
Engel is also calling for a surprising kicker you aren't even thinking about to be taken in the top five based on his Fantasy football rankings! This pick could be the difference between winning and losing in some important weeks of the season.
So which kickers should target as the perfect finish to your draft? And which sleeper newcomer do you need to know about? ... Join SportsLine here to see complete Fantasy football kicker rankings, all from a Fantasy Hall of Famer!
