Outside of the top options, fantasy scoring at the kicker position has been incredibly flat this season. The difference between the kicker ranked No. 7 in per-game scoring (minimum 2 games played) and the No. 21 kicker is just 1.5 fantasy points per game.
That doesn't mean that it doesn't matter who you start, however. It just highlights how dependent kickers are on game flow and matchups. There are few must-start fantasy options at the position (just ask anyone who drafted Justin Tucker), and instead, you should be diligent about checking the waiver wire for the best options to start each week.
