Week 3 Kicker Streamers and Starts: 2017 Fantasy Tiers & Rankings

Real Talk Raph breaks down all fantasy football Week 3 kickers -- streamers, sits/starts, and waiver wire pickups to add. His Week 3 rankings and tiers for all NFL kickers.

It's Week 3 RotoBallers and we're obsessing over kickers again! Yes, that’s right – kickers. After all, points are points, and even though kickers are very difficult to predict for fantasy points week to week, having the right one in your Week 3 lineup could be a difference maker.

We're here to give you that life changing analysis you so dearly covet, and help make your kicker start/sit and streaming decisions for Week 3. Who doesn't need a little help making those dreaded lineup decisions a bit easier, especially in the fantasy leg department?

This week we are going to only list our Top 15 kickers broken down into three tiers. Some of these kickers may have good Week 3 matchups, and be available on your league’s waiver wire, so don't sleep on your chance to cash in a few extra points via the leg.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2025:
