Week 8 - Forbath vs. Dallas
Kai Forbath had a big game in Week 7, kicking four field goals in the win over Tennessee. It was a friendly matchup and the Skins moved the ball enough to get him into position to put up fantasy points. This week's matchup isn't at friendly as Dallas is fifth in allowing fantasy points to kickers. Forbath is again near the bottom of our list.
Week 7 - Forbath vs. Tennessee
Kai Forbath was 2-for-2 with two extra points last week in what was a tougher matchup on paper. This week it gets a little easier as the Titans are 18th in allowing points to kickers. Forbath comes in ranked 14th. Given how this Skins usually play from behind and have a questionable offense right now, you may want to stick with a better option.
Week 6 - Forbath vs. Arizona
Kai Forbath kicked one field goal and added two extra points last week. He has just that one field goal over the last two weeks. Forbath is buried down our kicker list again this week in a bad matchup against the Cards. The Skins just aren't moving the ball and putting up points and there are likely safer options to go with.
Week 5 - Forbath vs. Seattle
Kai Forbath had just two extra points last week in a poor showing by the Skins against the Giants. This week Seattle is in town and the Seahawks rank 12th in allowing fantasy points to kickers. Forbath is a risky start. The Skins will have to keep this one close to make Forbath a good play. It's just not a good matchup.
Week 4 - Forbath vs. NY Giants
Kai Forbath was 1-for-2 last week with four extra points. It was a big miss in the game at the time on what was a makable kick.
The announcers alluded to Forbath having a groin issue and he also didn't look good on an extra point attempt. However, he appears on track to play Thursday night but owners should check and make sure. He does get a friendly ranking this week going against the Giants who are 24th in allowing fantasy points to kickers. Forbath is becoming a decent option if the Redskins offense can keep moving the ball with ease. However, matchups are going to get harder for Skins in the upcoming weeks.
Week 3 - Forbath vs. Philadelphia
Forbath kicked two field goals and booted five extra points last week in a blowout win over the Jags. This week, he's still ranked in the bottom half of our list going against the Eagles on the road. It's just an average matchup on paper and we think there are better options than Forbath.
Week 2 vs. Jaguars
Kai Forbath had just one extra point last week. He comes in ranked as K2 option in what should be a good matchup against the Jags. With the Washington offense struggling, fantasy owners should probably go with a safer option than Forbath until the team shows they can move the ball more consistently.
Week 1 vs Texans
Kai Forbath emerged as the Washington kicker again this year but you'll have to go pretty far down our list to find him. He ranks just 21st this week even though the Texans do allow field goals, ranking 24th in allowing fantasy points to kickers. Given the struggles of Robert Griffin III and the Redskins offense coming into this contest, it's probably safest to go with another kicking option.
