Is your fantasy football kicker going into a bye week? Or are you one of the many people who roster a different kicker each week based on matchups? Then you’re in luck.
Each week of the 2023 NFL season, BetFTW is bringing you a ranking of top kicker streamers to hopefully give you that edge you need in your next matchup.
Kickers aren’t the most important position in a fantasy lineup, but they can absolutely make or break a game. So, you want to make sure you have a good one. Here’s a look at the top options on waiver wires this week.

Carlson isn’t having the biggest fantasy season, but he matched his highest-scoring week in Green Bay’s last game and the Steelers have allowed three field goal attempts in six of eight games this season.

Myers isn’t having the most accurate season, but I’m expecting the Commanders to allow plenty of points through touchdowns and field goals, so he’ll have opportunities.

Folk hasn’t missed a kick yet this year, and Tampa is due to give up a few field goals after being let off the hook by an injury to Houston’s kicker last week.

Cameron Dicker, Los Angeles Chargers (vs. Detroit Lions)

Dicker is owned in 59 percent of Yahoo leagues, so he may not be widely available. But if you can find him, he’s a good option against a Lions team that the Chargers will have to score on to keep up.

Slye doesn’t have many fantasy highs this season — no double digit points — but he also doesn’t have many lows — just two weeks under six points. So, he’s a good option to fill in for a week.
