Fanduel NFL Week 2: K's to Target

Chalk
Dan Bailey - $4800

He's been one of the leagues best kickers in fantasy and in real life for the past few years and he's still below $5000. After a 15 pt game against the Giants, Bailey will be facing another strong defense in Denver. Kicking in Denver also adds a few yards to field goal length, so that doesn't hurt either.

GPP
Giorgio Tavecchio - $4700

Giorgio led all K's in fantasy points with 19 and is good position to put up double digits this week against the Jets. Predicting how well a K is gonna do is always difficult, but going off of game script, Oakland will score more points than the Jets. Whether its extra points or field goals is yet to be seen, but hopefully it's the latter if you choose Giorgio.

Pivot
Will Lutz - $4700

In my opinion, there's only two strategies to go for when choosing a K in fantasy football: pick a kicker who is on a bad team who can't score TDs or pick a K on a good team who scores a lot of points. I can't say that New Orleans is a good team when they start the season 0-1, but I can that Drew Brees and company know how to score points, especially when they play at home. In this weeks largest OVER/UNDER game, Lutz has a chance to mimic the 14 pts he put up last week.

Contrarian
Jason Myers - $4600

12 pts. Jason Myers put up 12 pts last week! I've rostered this guy mistakenly a handful of times the past two years and he always produced in the range of 3-7 pts for me. Hopefully the new look Jags can keep this streak alive for Myers. Plus I'm liking the matchup this week against Tennessee. I don't see it very prolific in scoring so the field goal opportunities should be available.

Sleeper
Blair Walsh - $4600

Walsh put up a respectable 10 points last week and has the lowly 49ers in Seattle this week. Biggest upside on this one? San Francisco allowed the second-most points to kickers on the road last year.

Bargain ($4500)
Connor Barth - $4500
The guy boots a 50+ field goal last week then a couple of extra points. Tampa Bay's defense should be tougher than Atlanta's which should keep the Bears out of the redzone. If so, we may see 3 or more 40+ fg attempts from Barth.
