Fantasy Football Draft Rankings: Kickers

While often overlooked, drafting a reliable kicker can sometimes be the difference between a weekly win and loss, especially in tight matchups. Whether you’re in a standard scoring format or a league that rewards bonus points for long field goals, knowing which kickers to target (and which to avoid) is essential.

From elite options like Brandon Aubrey to potential breakout kickers flying under the radar, our FantasyPros ECR 2025 kicker rankings will help you lock in the best value at the position on draft day.

Fantasy Football Player Notes: Kickers

Brandon Aubrey was the K1 in total fantasy points last year. He could repeat at the top of the position again in 2025. A healthy Dak Prescott and the addition of George Pickens should go a long way with sustaining drives, getting into field goal range, and improving scoring opportunities for Aubrey and the offense. Last year, Aubrey had ten weeks with double-digit fantasy scoring.

Jake Bates ended his first season with the Lions as the full-time starter as the 8th-highest scoring kicker in the league’s top scoring offense (PFF’s 4th-highest graded kicker). If the Lions offense regresses in the red zone, Bates should see his field goal attempts spike.

Chase McLaughlin finished 2024 as the sixth-highest scoring kicker (9.6 PPG). It was his best season to date, and he might have been just scratching the surface. His 94% FG% led all kickers with at least 23 attempts. His two misses were on 50-yard tries. If the Buccaneers’ 2024 4th-ranked red-zone offense regresses in any way, McLaughlin will benefit.
