Who Should I Start? Cameron Dicker or Jake Moody

Tuesday, April 2, 9:06 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers re-signed exclusive-rights free-agent kicker Cameron Dicker to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday. The Chargers placed a tender on Dicker on March 8 and he finally signed it. The 23-year-old will return to LA in 2024 after making 31 of his 33 field-goal tries and all 35 of his extra-point attempts in 17 games last year. In his rookie season in 2022 with the Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles, Dicker went 21-for-22 on field goals to lead the league with a 95.5 field-goal percentage while also making all 24 of his extra points in 11 games. He finished the 2023 campaign as the No. 10 fantasy kicker and should be in play as a top-10 kicker once again as long as he doesn't lose the primary kicking job for the Chargers in training camp this summer.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody will kick off San Francisco's postseason run on Saturday night versus the Green Bay Packers in the Divisional Round. Moody's rookie season has been a success, even while ranking in the bottom of the league in field goal attempts due to his historic extra-point prowess. In Week 18 versus the Rams, Moody ended a streak of 60 straight extra points converted, an NFL record since the extra-point attempt was moved back to the 15-yard line in 2015. Green Bay's defense has been unspectacular lately, allowing 32 points to Dallas last week, which should put Moody in a position to put points on the board consistent with his regular season performance. The weather is expected to be moderately rainy with wind gusts maxing out at 20 mph and shouldn't be a big issue. DFS players unwilling to spend the extra cash on Justin Tucker should consider Moody a high-floor option, leading the tier below.
