Fantasy defensive rankings are always fluid, as there are few elite units and more fantasy fans are playing the weekly matchups. The Packers are atop this week’s list, and teams like the Colts, Falcons, Buccaneers and Seahawks have plus matchups.

On the flip side, big-name defenses like the Ravens and Lions have tough matchups (facing each other), and the Rams will be tough to trust with a tough road matchup against the Eagles next.

With that said, here are my fantasy kicker rankings for Week 3. Be sure to check back all week for daily updates! You can also check out my full Week 3 player rankings, including the flex spot.
