Who Should I Start? Matt Prater or Eddy Piñeiro

Saturday, October 11, 3:16 PM

Buffalo Bills kicker Matt Prater remains a solid streaming option in Week 6, rostered in just 41% of fantasy leagues. Prater has been steady all season, converting 10-of-11 field-goal attempts while benefiting from the Bills' ability to consistently move the ball. Facing the league's top-ranked Falcons defense, Buffalo may find it difficult to finish drives in the end zone, setting up more field-goal opportunities for the veteran kicker. With a strong leg and a reliable track record, Prater offers high-upside potential in what could be a competitive, lower-scoring matchup on Monday night.

San Francisco 49ers kicker Eddy Pineiro has been one of the NFL's top scorers lately, going 8-for-8 on field goals and 3-for-3 on extra points over his last two games. The 30-year-old has been a terrific addition for the Niners, who moved on from the plight of Jake Moody earlier this year and have gotten consistent production out of his replacement. This week, Pineiro takes on the Atlanta Falcons, who rank near the middle of the league in limiting kicker points. The Falcons have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to kickers, giving Pineiro an opportunity to remain highly effective yet again. He should be streamed and/or started in most leagues this week.
