Fantasy Analysis

The Colts will remain one of the best offenses in the league. Vinateri would benefit from some red-zone struggles, but high scoring teams earn a lot of extra points. Kicking in a dome has it's advantages. Off-season hip surgery is a concern, but he is not expected to miss any time.

Grade (0 Worst - 5 Best): 2.2

Draft Analysis
Round 12, Pick 11
Positives
He's a very good kicker.
Negatives
He's a kicker. The Colts score too many TDs.
Draft Strategy
Let's not overthink this. You've gotta have a kicker, and Vinatieri is one of the best. At this point, the position players are all of similar value, so I might as well draft a solid kicker. (Contributed by: Agenda42)

Round 13, Pick 3
Positives
One of the best kickers in the league. On a potentially high scoring team.
Negatives

Draft Strategy
Well, I got him by auto draft. Not sure why, but I got him. Again, not unhappy with him. He's one of the best, and certainly welcome on my team. (Contributed by: Ed_Leduke)

Round 14, Pick 6
Positives
Kicker for the NFL's 2nd best offense.
Negatives
Has no chance of scoring other than kicks.
Draft Strategy
Pretty good for the 14th round. Surprised he lasted this long. But kickers are a dime a dozen so who really cares. (Contributed by: pcfountain)
