Who Should I Start? Cameron Dicker or Cam Little

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker made every Chargers point in a 15-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 7. Dicker attempted five field goals, making all five of them. He didn't get a chance to kick an extra point as the Chargers were allergic to the end zone in this game. Dicker set a career long and tied a Chargers franchise record with a 59-yard field goal in the first quarter. He followed that up with field goals from 50, 28, 47, and 40 yards out. It was an excellent real life and fantasy performance for "Dicker the Kicker", especially in leagues with distance bonuses. He'll get another good matchup in Week 8 against the New Orleans Saints.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Cam Little is worth considering in starting lineups in Week 7 against the New England Patriots. The rookie kicker only had one field goal and one extra point last week in London against the Chicago Bears, but should have a busier week in London against a worse Patriots defense. Since missing a field goal in Week 2, Little has hit every attempt, so efficiency is not a worry. His longest field goal on the year is 53 yards, so he has a decent leg. Little's fantasy inconsistency has come down to the Jaguars offense not playing that well this season. However, with some of their weapons returning from injury and the offense steadily playing better, a much better matchup for the Jaguars offense should mean more points than the 16 they scored last week. Fantasy managers should be fine starting Little in their fantasy lineups in Week 7.
