Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets
KICKERS
Brandon McManus (JAX): 45% rostered
- Next Opponents: @HOU, CIN, @CLE
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $2
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: The Jaguars’ veteran kicker has been rock-solid in 2023, making 20-of-22 field goals and 22-of-22 extra points. McManus entered Week 11 averaging 9.7 fantasy points per game, tied for sixth-most among kickers. He booted two FGs and four PATs on Sunday as the Jaguars rebounded from a blowout loss to the 49ers in Week 10 and downed the Titans by a score of 34-14.
Jake Moody (SF): 34% rostered
- Next Opponents: @SEA, @PHI, SEA
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $2
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: The 49ers are averaging 27.9 points per game and are capable of moving the ball and putting up points against even the toughest defenses. That gives Moody a sturdy floor and some spike-week potential. The only problem is that the San Francisco offense can occasionally be too efficient, scoring a lot of touchdowns and forcing Moody’s investors to settle for extra points rather than field goals. The rookie kicker is 16-of-19 on field goals this season and 33-of-33 on extra points.
Matt Gay (IND): 16% rostered
- Next Opponents: TB, @TEN, @CIN
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $1
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: Gay is averaging 9.3 fantasy points per game, and he’ll be kicking at home in a dome this weekend against the Buccaneers. Gay is 17-of-20 on field goals and 25-of-25 on extra points this year.
Greg Joseph (MIN): 16% rostered
- Next Opponents: CHI, BYE, @LV
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $1
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: Joseph entered Week 11 averaging a modest 7.7 fantasy points per game, but he’s been hot lately, posting double-digit point totals in four of his last six games. In Week 12, Joseph gets a favorable home matchup against the Bears, who entered Week 11 having allowed 9.7 fantasy points per game to kickers, eighth-most in the league.
Matt Ammendola (HOU): 10% rostered
- Next Opponents: JAX, DEN, @NYJ
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $1
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: Filling in for Ka’imi Fairbairn, who’s on injured reserve with a quad injury, Ammendola has kicked three field goals and six extra points in his first two games with the Texans. With C.J. Stroud giving Houston one of the better passing games in the league, Ammendola is a reasonable streaming option.
Matt Prater (ARI): 7% rostered
- Next Opponents: LAR, @PIT, BYE
- True value: $1
- Desperate need: $1
- Budget-minded: $0
Analysis: QB Kyler Murray‘s return from a knee injury has made Prater a viable fantasy option. The 39-year-old Prated booted a 57-yard field goal on Sunday — his sixth field goal of 50 yards or longer this season. In the two games that Murray has played, Prater has booted five field goals and three extra points. He gets a nice Week 12 matchup against the Rams, who entered Week 11 having allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game to kickers.
