Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets: Kicker

KICKERS

Written by Pat Fitzmaurice

Chase McLaughlin (TB): 39% rostered

• Next Opponents: LV, @LAC, @DAL
• True value: $1
• Desperate Need: $2
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: McLaughlin kicked four field goals and two extra points in the Buccaneers’ 26-23 win over the Panthers on Sunday. He missed a 55-yarder in overtime but atoned by kicking a 30-yard game-winner a few minutes later. McLaughlin is averaging 9.3 fantasy points a game and gets a terrific Week 14 matchup against the Raiders, who are giving up a league-high 13.2 fantasy points per game to kickers.

Will Reichard (MIN): 3% rostered

• Next Opponents: ATL, CHI, @SEA
• True value: $1
• Desperate Need: $2
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Reichard has been on injured reserve with a quadriceps injury but is due to come off this week. Assuming Reichard is ready to go, he’ll get an attractive Week 14 matchup against the Falcons, who are allowing 12.4 fantasy points per game to kickers, second-most in the league. The Vikings’ next two games are both at home in the domed confines of U.S. Bank Stadium. Before going on IR, Reichard was 14-of-16 on field goals and 23-of-23 on extra points in eight games.

Blake Grupe (NO): 5% rostered

• Next Opponents: @NYG, WSH, @GB
• True value: $1
• Desperate Need: $1
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: Grupe hit a pair of 54-yard field goals Sunday against the Rams, although he also missed a 36-yarder. He’s made multiple field goals in four of his last five games. The reliable Grupe gets a Week 14 matchup against the Giants, who have given up 26 or more points in five of their last six contests.

Jason Myers (SEA): 19% rostered

• Next Opponents: @ARI, GB, MIN
• True value: $1
• Desperate Need: $1
• Budget-minded: $0

Analysis: The assurance of good conditions is always a plus for kickers this time of year, and Myers gets that with a game in Arizona this week. Myers was 2-of-2 on FGs in Sunday’s win over the Jets and hasn’t missed a field goal since Oct. 6 (although, oddly, he’s missed three extra points over that span).
