Fantasy Football Kicker Rankings

I took 3 of my 4 fantasy football teams to the playoffs last year, and in all of the leagues I drafted a kicker in the last or next to last round.  I cannot say this enough...WAIT to draft a kicker till the last round or second to last round.  Look at the 2007 points column and you will see not a very big point difference between the best kicker and an ok kicker.  Most of the disparity in points has to do with whether a kicker played every week or not.

Also know that almost everyone will drop a kicker, even the good ones, during the bye week.  I picked up Mason Crosby, Gostkowski, Robbie Gould, etc, after their bye week because of this.
