Big Board Rankings 2008: The Kickers
Not a lot of attention to details on my rankings for kickers because, frankly, I just don’t care much. I fully intend on drafting a kicker in the last round. I found the key to ranking kickers is to try to figure out which of the elite kickers get the most attempts. The rankings are slightly different here than my previous entries. The number next to the team name is the kicker’s bye week. The number next to that is the order that kicker was drafted (avg amongst kickers) in the thousands of drafts that have occured on NFL.com since July.
2008 Big Board Kickers
1. Folk DAL 10 1
2. Graham CIN 8 5
3. Kaeding SD 9 8
4. J Brown STL 5 6
5. Gostkowski NE 4 2
6. Dawson CLE 5 4
7. Rackers ARZ 7 11
8. Gould CHI 8
9. Bironas TEN 6 9
10. K. Brown HOU 8 12
11. Vinatieri IND 4 3
12 Crosby GB 8 7
Draft one last unless depth everywhere else is completely depleted. Gould seems to be a good last-ditch guy.
