Wild Card Round Fantasy Football Rankings: Kickers

With only 12 kickers to choose from this week, think about which games should be high scoring.

It's that time of year, friends. We're now in the NFL postseason and Wild Card Weekend is upon us. Six games are on tap: two on Saturday (Seahawks vs. 49ers & Chargers vs. Jaguars), three on Sunday (Dolphins vs. Bills, Giants vs. Vikings and Ravens vs. Bengals) and one on Monday (Cowboys vs. Buccaneers).

The fantasy season is over but whether it is a fantasy playoff league, a pick'em contest, DFS or betting, it's still worth it to cover the games with the highest point totals on SI Sportsbook. The highest point total game is the Giants vs. Vikings (O/U 48.5). The next two highest totals are Chargers vs. Jaguars (O/U 47.5) and Cowboys vs. Buccaneers (O/U 45.5).

You should downgrade the players from the matchups with low point totals. The contest with the lowest point total on SI Sportsbook is Seahawks vs. 49ers (O/U 43). The next lowest point total games are Ravens vs. Bengals (O/U 43.5) and Dolphins vs. Bills (O/U 44.5).
