Musings on a Value Place Kicker for FanDuel - Chris Boswell

Since joining the Steelers, this is what Chris Boswell ($4,500) has accomplished:

Year    Team    G    0-29    30-39   40-49    50+    FGM    FGA    %     XPM    XPA    %      TBs
2015    PIT       3    2 - 2     1 - 1     3 - 3      1 - 1       7         7    100.0      5          5    100.0    5

Boswell has hit 100% of his seven field goal attempts since joining the Steelers - including three from 40-49 and one from 50+ - and also 100% of extra point attempts. He's the minimum $4,500 this week on FanDuel, playing at home in Heinz Field with temperatures forecast for the low 60's and wind forecast to be under 10 MPH. The Steelers face a so-so Bengals D in this divisional showdown. 

That sounds like a recipe for a solid day from a bargain-basement kicker price point.

I'm rostering Boswell all over the place on FanDuel this week. So far Boswell has averaged 10.3 fantasy points per game for his owners, only .4 points per game less than top-priced Steven Hauschka's  ($5,100) average of 10.7.

  1. What about for the fact that they went for 2 often when Ben was the QB? I have a feeling they're going to resort back to doing that the majority of the time.
