Fantasy Football Draft Rankings: Kickers

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
Last year, Jake Bates ranked as the K10 in fantasy points per game. He was tenth in field goal percentage. He was only 22nd in field goals attempted. If the Lions convert fewer of their red zone opportunities into touchdowns this season, Bates should have more field goal opportunities in 2025 while still residing in one of the league’s best offenses (Bates was first in extra point attempts).
Matt Gay takes over in Washington after kicking for Indy last year. Last year, he was the K13 in fantasy points per game while logging the second straight season with less than 84% of his field goals made. Gay should post top 12 fantasy kicker numbers in 2025, but the week-to-week volatility could be maddening if his accuracy doesn’t bounce back to 2021-2022 levels (93.3-94.1% of his field goals made).
The Ravens’ rookie kicker, Tyler Loop, should be among the top 12 fantasy kickers this season. Last year, Justin Tucker dipped to K16 in this offense, but his percentage of field goals made dipped to a ghastly 73.3%. Tucker still ranked third in extra point attempts. Baltimore led the NFL last year in red zone touchdown scoring rate with an insane 73.9%. That number will regress some offering Tyler Loop some more field goal opportunities in 2025.
