2011 Fantasy College Football Kicker Rankings
There is very little difference in finding a solid kicker in college fantasy then in NFL fantasy. You need someone who will get attempts, and convert them. One wrinkle to keep in mind in college is the wild variations in the range seen amongst kickers. Some will see opportunities from 50 yards, and some won’t get a crack at anything beyond 35. So not all conversion percentages are created equal like in the NFL where all kickers typically posses enough leg strength for their teams to at least give them opportunities from longer distances.
College Fantasy Coach’s top kicker heading into 2011 is Danny Hrapmann of Southern Mississippi. Hrapmann was deadly accurate last season, converting all 55 extra points and hitting 26 field goals. He also plays in one of the highest scoring conferences in college football which should help maximize his chances.
