Fantasy Football Kicker of the year: Nick Folk

The New England Patriots always find a way to land a kicker who is just straight up a beast. Adam Vinatieri, Stephen Gostkowski, and now Nick Folk.

Nick Folk has been the K1 since WEEK 7. People don’t understand how valuable a kicker is if the league has a kicker in the starting line-up. Having a kicker putting up over ten points each week goes a long way.

Streaming kickers is the way to go, but when someone has the top kicker, it is an advantage that can almost guarantee a win.

Nick Folk has seven games with over 10 points and in five of those games, he had 15 or more points. Folk also is tied for the best FG percentage this season.
