Fantasy Football Week 9 Rankings: K

Hopefully, you ignored me a few weeks back when I said Dan Carpenter was a one-week wonder. Dude has since rattled off back-to-back weeks of five field goals. He's certainly gotten a good workout and is becoming an absolute fantasy kicking stud... if that really even exists. It seems the bye week of rest served him well. He's gone 13-for-13 in the last three weeks alone on field goals. Of course, it helps that the Dolphins can't score touchdowns.

And who does Dan Carpenter draw this week? Ah yes, the Baltimore Ravens and what looks like a game where he could see plenty of FG attempts as his team struggles to score TDs. Naturally, he'd have to lead the rankings this week, right? Ah, well, not so fast. He's up there for sure, but let's go with the guy who should see plenty of scoring chances against a defense that has all but cashed in its chips. Welcome back Mason Crosby and let's watch him feed on the opportunities that will no doubt arise on Sunday night. Get some ice ready Mason, your leg will be sore.

As for the rest of the ranks...
