Nick Folk Moves into Streaming Range for Week 5

Saturday, October 10, 8:20 AM

Atlanta Falcons kicker Nick Folk, after starting the year 3-for-6 on field goal tries, is now 3-for-3 over the last two games and is a perfect 10-for-10 on extra points so far this season. Week 5 brings a favorable matchup against the Ravens, who will be without QB Lamar Jackson (ankle) and LB Trey Hendrickson (finger), making the Falcons three-point home favorites in Atlanta on Sunday night. Being in the dome in Atlanta means that the veteran kicker will not have to deal with the elements, and with the team owning an implied point total of 23.5, there should be a decent amount of scoring. It all sets the 41-year-old up as a potential streaming option in Week 5, ranking as the No. 20 kicker overall at RotoBaller.

Tyler Bass Remains a Viable Week 5 Kicker

Saturday, October 10, 11:59 AM

Buffalo Bills kicker Tyler Bass has made all six of his field-goal attempts through four games, but the opportunities haven't exactly been plentiful. Three of those attempts came in the season opener, and he's attempted only three field goals over the last three weeks. Bass connected from 27 and 38 yards against New England, his first multi-field-goal game since Week 1. Buffalo now faces a Rams defense that has allowed just 582 passing yards, while Joshua Palmer is out and DJ Moore remains questionable. Those injuries add some uncertainty to an offense that has struggled to maintain its early-season production. RotoBaller ranks Bass as K12 for Week 5, putting him on the fringe of the starting conversation in 12-team leagues. His accuracy has been excellent, but the inconsistent field-goal volume limits his appeal.
