Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins made all three of his field-goal attempts and added two extra points in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Hopkins hit field goals from 28, 33, and 48 yards out in the upset win over the Ravens. The veteran kicker has now made 13 of his 16 attempts through eight games. With the Cleveland offense looking the best it has all year in Jameis Winston's first start of the season, Hopkins is all of a sudden looking like a viable fantasy option heading into Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro has found himself at the bottom of fantasy kickers even though it hasn't been his fault. Pineiro has converted on every field and extra point so far, but he's only attempted one field goal in each game and one extra point overall. The Panthers' offense has been abysmal as they haven't even been able to get into field goal range let alone find the end zone at even an average rate. While their quarterback swap may alleviate some of those woes, Pineiro is better left on the bench or the waiver wire until the offense proves it can move the ball down the field. To put things into perspective, Pineiro only has four more fantasy points than Matt Gay and five more than Spencer Shrader, both of whom have only appeared in one game.
