Fantasy Analysis

When comparing fantasy kickers, one likes things to be as predictable as possible. Even with a decent understanding about the situation kickers each face with his respective team, it's difficult to anticipate which kicker will convert roughly a pair of field goals per game, for example, versus which kicker will convert 3 or 4 field goals in some games but none in others. One kicker may be good for just as many field goals as another kicker, but accomplish this while missing on field goal attempts more often and seeming much more inconsistent. Matt excited fantasy owners with how well he executed, the first part of last season, but faded big-time as the weeks went by. He hit 5-of-6 from 50+ yards out, yet finished with a meager field goal conversion rate of 73.5% overall. Factor in Denver's coaching changes, new quarterback and completely different defense, and his potential among fantasy kickers becomes darn near impossible to figure. Draft him at your own risk.

Grade (0 Worst - 5 Best): 2.6

Draft Analysis
Round 12, Pick 1
Positives
Potential to put up a fair # of points kicking behind the Denver offense.
Negatives
Very little track record.
Draft Strategy
Already heavy on RB/WR and have my starting TE and QB locked in. Might as well round out my starting roster with my defense (round 11) and kicker with this pick. (Contributed by: Budman)
