Top 5 Kickers On Fantasy Football Week 11 Waiver Wire

Just like an NFL team, no fantasy team is complete without their kicker. Though he may only pick up points here and there throughout the game, they add up fast. If your kicker is taking break this week, here are five potential replacements.

Bullock would be higher on this list if it weren't for the Texans heading into a matchup against a hot Cleveland Browns defense. They allowed just one field goal last week against a strong Cincinnati Bengals offense, and they might stuff Bullock this week. However, he's shown a strong leg thus far with 70 fantasy points to his name.

The kicker opposing Bullock this week has had a pretty hot league of late, and as long as the Browns keep charging with their offense, Cundiff will follow suit. The Texans are no sham against kickers, but I'd expect the Browns to at least put Cundiff in range for 10 points this week and on a consistent basis from here on out.

Saints kickers have had it pretty easy since Drew Brees came to the team. Their kickers always get on the field whether it be for field goals or just PATs, and Graham can speak to that. His lowest total this year was a fluke Week 3 game with just three points. Graham can be a consistent contributor and against a down Bengals team, he could be in store for a big game.

This might be surprising as Forbath is hardly owned, but that has more to do with the team he's on than anything. His relative lack of production comes from a string of early Redskins losses, but with their three-game run and Robert Griffin back in the lineup, things are looking up for Forbath going against the third-weakest kicking defense this week -- the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

There's probably a few things holding Sturgis from being owned in nearly every league this year: the relative weakness of his offense, the history of Dan Carpenter and previous Dolphins kickers leaving a bad omen, etc. However, Sturgis ranks as a top-10 kicker this season and though the offense isn't too powerful, they've gotten the job done to set up their young kicker for success thus far.
