Streaming Kickers: Week 9 Targets
Despite most of the fantasy community being anti-kicker, 4for4 is always a safe space for those who still play in leagues that utilize the kicker position. In fact, using kicker to your advantage is a great way to get a leg up on your opponents and gain potential weekly league-winning points.

In Week 8, my top suggestion was also my best performer, as Ryan Succop posted 13 fantasy points (fantasy K5), with Jason Myers, Tyler Bass and Cody Parkey all ending the week with starting numbers—fantasy K12, K13 and K14, respectively.
So far through eight weeks, 4for4’s optimal streamer has 108 points, translating to fantasy K1 numbers on the season.
In order to provide advice you can actually implement, candidates for streaming must be rostered in no more than 40% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues. As always, check 4for4’s rankings and our signature Schedule-Adjusted Fantasy Points Allowed (aFPA) metric when making weekly decisions on any position.
Top Streaming Picks
Ryan Succop (Buccaneers) vs. Saints
If you grabbed Ryan Succop last week to stream, kick back and chill, as he’s set up for another productive contest. The Bucs are six-point favorites at home over New Orleans and are projected to post a hearty 29.5 points in the win (the second-largest implied total on the Week 9 slate).
Succop boasts the fourth-highest fantasy points at the kicker position over the past four weeks and is surprisingly only on 34% of Yahoo! rosters.
