Eddy Pineiro A Solid Choice In Week 5

Saturday, October 10, 3:05 AM

San Francisco 49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro was 3-for-3 on his extra points, converted one field goal attempt, and had another one blocked in last Sunday's win over the Denver Broncos. Pineiro's make from the field was on a 24-yarder in the second quarter. The block came on a 54-yard try at the end of the first half. He is 14-for-16 on extra points, leading the league in both conversions and attempts, and 4-for-6 on field goal attempts. San Francisco's ability to convert drives into touchdowns has robbed Pineiro of more opportunities to try the field goals that would be more lucrative for fantasy purposes. However, it bodes well for his prospects that his offense can consistently drive into their opponent's territory. In Week 5, Pineiro is worth starting in what should be a hard-fought divisional matchup between the 49ers and Seattle Seahawks.

Andy Borregales Carries His Low Floor Into Week 5

Saturday, October 10, 2:16 PM

New England Patriots kicker Andy Borregales has been an uninspiring fantasy option this season, ranking 29th at his position in terms of fantasy points so far. The 23-year-old is just 5-for-7 on field goals through four weeks, as well as 6-for-6 on extra points. Between a couple of missed kicks and a generally lower field goal volume, Borregales has become tough to trust in his second pro season. Last week's Patriots win suggested that the offense is trending in the right direction. Normally, that would boost a kicker's fantasy value, but the Miami product had just three fantasy points in the victory. Managers can find stronger streaming options elsewhere ahead of Week 5.
