Who Should I Start? Michael Badgley or Cameron Dicker

Saturday, November 1, 10:19 AM

Indianapolis Colts kicker Michael Badgley will head on the road to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. Badgley has been excellent for the Colts since taking over kicking duties after Spencer Shrader was lost for the season with a knee injury. The veteran placekicker has made all three of his field-goal tries while hitting 12 of his 13 extra points in three contests. The Steelers have been generous to kickers this season, allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Although Badgley hasn't attempted multiple field goals in a game yet, Shrader was near the league lead in field-goal makes and attempts before he got hurt. Badgley sets up as a top-10 fantasy kicker in Week 9.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker is a must-start every week, and this Week 10 home matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers is no different. Dicker was perfect last week, making both of his field goal attempts (including a 52-yarder) and all three extra points. The Steelers' defense has been playing well lately, suggesting they could limit the Chargers' red-zone opportunities and force them to settle for field goals instead of touchdowns, which would boost Dicker's volume. Given his consistency and the likely need for his leg against a potentially tough opponent, RotoBaller projects Dicker as the K1 this week.
