2012 Fantasy Football Kicker Rankings

Alright ladies and gentlemen,

Got some kicker rankings for you. Now... because they are kickers, I'm not going to go nuts over explaining my picks to you. (Probably because there is no rhyme or reason) But I did throw them in the order that I like them, and included their stat lines from last season. You're welcome.

Oh, and just know, there are going to be people that jump on the top five or so kickers too early. Don't be that guy. When it comes down to it, (excluding David Akers' fantastic season) the difference between the 2nd best fantasy kicker and the 12th best kicker was only 19 points. Less than two points per game. You'd be much better off spending your late round picks on sleepers, handcuffs and backups than you would be jumping up for a kicker.
