Week 8 Kicker Streamers and Starts: 2017 Fantasy Tiers & Rankings

jake elliott fantasy football kicker rankings news NFL DFS lineup picks

Real Talk Raph breaks down all fantasy football Week 8 kickers -- streamers, sits/starts, and waiver wire pickups to add. His Week 8 rankings and tiers for all NFL kickers.

It's Week 8 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 8 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 8. 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 8 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.

Editor's Note: The FFPC Playoff Challenge is back with a massive $500,000 grand prize and $1.35 million total prize pool, paying down to 800th place. Here's the deal: no salary cap, no draft, no pickups, no subs. Choose 10 players, and as NFL teams get knocked out so will your players, so choose your team wisely. The 7,250 entries will sell out quickly, and registrations will close on Saturday January 10th at 4:30 pm ET . Don't wait - get your team now and end your fantasy football season with a shot at $500,000! Sign Up Now!
