BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: K2
ANALYSIS: Atlanta Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo will remain the team's starter in Week 11, at least. But he's missed so many kicks in his past few games that fantasy managers should roll with another player at the position. In most leagues, there are solid options in free agency or on waivers for the majority of the season.

He's hit just one of his seven field goal attempts in his last four contests. That's an atrocious rate. He's been a solid fantasy starter in recent seasons due to the volume of kicks that he's made, but he's had a penchant for going ice-cold for streaks of games. But he's now made just 70.8% of his attempts this season.
If he starts being more accurate, he'll be a good player to start down the stretch, but the potential for strings of dud games carries significant risk. It's worth starting kickers that have slightly fewer opportunities but are much more accurate. The upside may not be as great, technically, but 1-3 point games from kickers can be week-losing efforts in fantasy.
