Who Should I Start? Matt Prater or Jason Myers

Wednesday, September 17, 1:42 PM

The Buffalo Bills' Matt Prater has been among the NFL's most effective kickers through the first two weeks of the season. The 41-year-old journeyman, who signed with the Bills on Sept. 4 to replace the injured Tyler Bass (groin), has nailed all six of his field-goal attempts while going 5-for-5 on extra points. Prater ranks fifth among kickers in fantasy scoring two weeks into the season, and he should have plenty of opportunities to add to his total on Thursday against the Miami Dolphins. While the Dolphins have given up a whopping 66 points in two games, the Bills' high-powered offense has put 71 on the board. All signs are pointing to another busy night for Prater, which gives him plenty of upside heading into Week 3.

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers continues to be a quality option at the position. He should push for double-digit fantasy points when the Seahawks visit the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 2. Myers has remained accurate as Seattle's kicker. He booted home all of his field goal and extra point attempts in Week 1. The Seahawks found themselves in scoring position a handful of times, but they happened to collapse in Week 1. If they can clean up many of the miscues that plagued the offense in the opening game, the team should move the ball with ease against a Steelers defense that just allowed 32 points to the New York Jets. Start Myers with confidence in Week 2.
