1. John Kasay (NO): John Kasay had a bad game last week, as did the rest of the New Orleans Saints. He finished with just three extra points after missing his only field goal attempt. This week against Tampa Bay, Kasay should return to his normal point scoring self. Projected fantasy points: 10.3.

2. Dan Bailey (DAL): Dan Bailey was very unproductive last week as the Cowboys offense only put up seven points. That game was an anomaly for the kicker, as he had four straight games of ten or more points going into week eight. This week Dallas should score plenty against Seattle, so expect Bailey to do so as well. Projected fantasy points: 10.3.

3. Mason Crosby (GB): Crosby and the Packers had the last week off. He’s going into this weekend’s matchup against the San Diego Chargers having nailed every field goal and extra point he has taken this season. The Packers offense will continue to roll this weekend against the Chargers, and Crosby will likely have a great game. Projected fantasy points: 10.0.

4. Neil Rackers (HOU): Rackers takes the fourth spot after an underwhelming performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Texans kicker went one of two on field goals and drilled three extra points. This Sunday the Texans should beat up on the Browns, so expect a better day from Rackers. Projected fantasy points: 9.7.

5. Matt Bryant (ATL): Matt Bryant rounds out the list after nailing three field goals and four extra points against the Detroit Lions in week seven. This week the Falcons play the Colts on the road. Atlanta should score plenty, which makes Bryant a must start. Projected fantasy points: 9.7.

Not top 5, but could be: This week’s kicker that just missed the cut is Oakland’s Sebastian Janikowski. Sea Bass is back in action after a bye week for the Oakland Raiders. Janikowski has been a solid fantasy kicker this year, with five field goals made from 50 or more yards. The Raiders play a struggling Denver team this Sunday. Oakland relies on Janikowski’s strong leg and he has delivered all year. Projected fantasy points: 9.5.
