OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - Week 6, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 – Sebastian Janikowski vs. San Diego Chargers
In his most recent game, Sebastian Janikowski connected on two extra points and did not attempt a field goal. He will remain completely irrelevant until the Raiders stop contending for the first pick in the draft on an annual basis.

OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - Week 4, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 – Sebastian Janikowski vs. Miami Dolphins
After not attempting a field goal in the first two weeks of the season, Sebastian Janikowski converted all three of his tries last Sunday as Oakland played the Patriots much tougher than expected. Regardless, the Raiders still do not have much of an offense, which will likely banish Seabass to the waiver wire for the rest of the season.

OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - Week 3, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 – Sebastian Janikowski at New England Patriots
Through two games, Sebastian Janikowski has yet to attempt a field goal, while notching four extra points. Needless to say, a kicker averaging two points a week has no appeal to fantasy owners, especially with New England next on the schedule.

OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - Week 2, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 – Sebastian Janikowski vs. Houston Texans
It was a very quiet 2014 debut for Sebastian Janikowski, as the most-tenured Raider accounted for two extra points and no field goal attempts. With Oakland’s offense still in a state of flux and J.J. Watt in town, the bottom of the board is where Seabass belongs.

OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - Week 1, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 – Sebastian Janikowski at New York Jets
When Sebastian Janikowski started with the Raiders in 2000, Bill Clinton was still in the White House. Seabass has seen Oakland go from powerful (three straight division championships and a trip to the Super Bowl during his first three seasons) to powerless (pretty much the rest of his career aside from two 8-8 seasons in 2010 and 2011). Right now, the Raiders are plenty powerless, although there is some hope for optimism in Oakland because of rookie quarterback Derek Carr. Until proven otherwise, let Janikowski stay on the waiver wire.

OAK K Sebastian Janikowski - 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Sebastian Janikowski 2014 Season Outlook
After a banner 2012 season when he converted over 90 percent of his field goal attempts, Sebastian Janikowski had a disastrous 2013 campaign. His accuracy rate plunged to 70 percent. Even worse, more of his misses came from within 30-49 yards than beyond 50. In the end, few owners were impacted by Janikowski’s bout of incompetence, as the Oakland offense was not strong enough to make him a serious fantasy option. Can both the Raiders and Seabass improve in 2014?

2014 Upside
Despite his down year, the Raiders still believe in Janikowski. He has been the one constant in Oakland for over a decade, and it is possible Oakland’s offense may show some growth if imported veterans Matt Schaub, Maurice Jones-Drew, and James Jones can make a difference. Speaking of veterans, on defense the Raiders have added Justin Tuck, Antonio Smith, LaMarr Woodley, Tarell Brown, and Carlos Rogers to join old pro Charles Woodson. With rookie linebacker Khalil Mack potentially adding star power to the modern day version of the Over the Hill Gang, maybe the Raiders can evolve into a team that relies on their defense and a ball-control offense, provided Schaub can cure the turnover bug that bit him often last year in Houston. Those types of teams often settle for field goals in low-scoring brawls as opposed to getting into high-scoring shootouts.

2014 Downside
Oakland’s schedule is enough to make anyone cringe. For starters, all three of their AFC West rivals made the playoffs last season. While San Diego and Denver were not defensive powerhouses, each squad has upgraded their personnel on that side of the ball. However, while we are on the subject of defensive powerhouses, the Raiders will play Seattle, St. Louis, Arizona, and San Francisco, plus New England, which added Darrelle Revis. With so many daunting matchups, Schaub may not be able to get on track. If the Raiders have to turn to rookie Derek Carr, there will be growing pains. And there will probably be plenty of pain regardless.

Bottom Line
Once again, Oakland looks like one of the weakest teams in the NFL. While Janikowski may rebound from last year’s debacle, fantasy owners are advised to watch that rebound from a distance. He has no place on your squad.
