Matt Prater
K - DET
2017 Outlook
Expert Note
View More NotesPrater had a solid campaign last year, hitting all seven of his field goals from fifty yards or longer and all but one from 40- yards and in. Perplexedly, he missed four of his mid range kicks going 10 of 14 between 40-49 yards. He's a good, not great option.

Matt Prater connected on both of his field goal attempts on Saturday night against the Seahawks, one from 51 yards out and one from 53 yards.
Fantasy Impact
Detroit's super clutch kicker had a nice night in Seattle, setting the league record for most 50+ yard field goals in a postseason game and finished the year a perfect 7 for 7 on attempts from that distance. While he's no Justin Tucker -- few are -- he is one of the league's better kickers and, with Detroit's offense likely healthier and higher functioning in 2017, should be one of fantasy's better kickers next year, as well.
