Who Should I Start? Jake Elliott or Chad Ryland

Friday, October 18, 9:02 PM

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott will go on the road to take on the division-rival New York Giants in Week 7. The veteran has started the season slow, missing both his tries from more than 50 yards and converting just six field goals all year. The Eagles' aggressive offense in plus territory has stifled Elliott's fantasy managers at every turn so far this season, but because the offense can find its way into scoring territory often, he remains on the streaming radar in plus matchups. With the Giants ranking middle of the pack against fantasy kickers this season, Elliott should be considered a boom or bust streamer in Week 7.

Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland would be a risky play in their Week 7 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. Ryland will fill in for the injured Matt Prater (knee) for the next few weeks, as Prater was placed on injured reserve. Ryland has been solid in relief, going five for six on his field goal attempts and making both of his extra-point attempts over the past two weeks. While he has performed well until the Cardinals' offense finds more consistency, he is not a reliable play in fantasy and would be a risky streaming option at best.
