Who Should I Start? Jason Myers or Daniel Carlson

Saturday, November 8, 3:11 AM

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers should have plenty of chances to rack up points on Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. Myers has always been an accurate kicker, but Seattle's ascension as an office is providing Myers with a lot of shots at field goals and extra points. Myers enters Week 10 averaging 9.75 fantasy points as a kicker. He is providing your team with legitimate low-end flex value in your kicker spot. Best of all, Myers is doing so consistently. He has reached double-digit fantasy points three times this season. The Cardinals boast a solid defense, but they will be traveling to Seattle in Week 10. The home-field advantage should help Seattle be successful offensively. Trust Myers as a high-end kicker option in Week 10 and beyond.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson draws a challenging matchup in Week 7 versus the Kansas City Chiefs, making him a risky fantasy start. The Chiefs have allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers this season and continue to limit scoring opportunities with one of the league's stingiest defenses. Meanwhile, Geno Smith and the Raiders offense have struggled to sustain drives or finish in scoring position, further capping Carlson's upside. While the veteran remains a very accurate kicker, his lack of opportunity makes him tough to trust in fantasy lineups this week. Managers should consider streaming a kicker from a more favorable offensive environment until the Raiders show more consistency.
