Fantasy Football Kicker Rankings Week 2: Who to start, best sleepers and streamers at K image

Kicker is by far the most difficult position at which to predict good fantasy football performances week to week. The issue is how many factors go into a kicker getting a field-goal attempt, which is ultimately what you want. 

Something that will continue to be in these kicker rankings is the reminder that it's smart to see which kickers are playing indoors. Completely eliminating the weather is a huge advantage. 

Here are our Week 2 kicker rankings.

Who are the best fantasy kickers in Week 2?

The top guys stay at the top, and it should be no surprise. This includes Brandon Aubrey, Cameron Dicker, and Harrison Butker. 

Tyler Loop had a good debut for the Baltimore Ravens on SNF. He's a great option going forward. 

Who are the best fantasy kicker sleepers in Week 2?

Two kickers come to mind, and it's Wil Lutz and Chad Ryland. Lutz had an average fantasy performance with 2 made PATs and 2 made FGs. This was despite the Broncos' offense giving the ball to the other team as much as they could. In Week 2, Lutz and the Broncos get a nice indoor matchup against the Colts. 

Ryland had a great day in the office for Week 1. He nailed 2 long FGs and made 2 PATs as well. The Cardinals are the perfect team for good fantasy performances out of their kickers. Arizona has plenty of talent to move the ball, but it always seems to stall out, giving Ryland some FG opportunities.
