Week 6 Fantasy Football Kicker Rankings: Cameron Dicker Moves Into Top 5

The fifth week of the NFL season has come and gone, and we’ve already entered the bye weeks. The good news is that only two teams, the Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings, are off the board. There is also another international game, as the Denver Broncos face the New York Jets in London (9:30 a.m. ET).
The Week 6 kicker rankings are mostly chalk at the top with Brandon Aubrey, Cameron Dicker and Jake Bates in the top 10. Matt Prater has emerged into a viable, weekly fantasy play as well, while big names like Harrison Butker and Evan McPherson have become tougher to trust as weekly starting options in most leagues.
With that said, here are my complete fantasy football kicker rankings for the sixth week of the NFL season.
