2. Caleb Sturgis-Miami Dolphins

Rookie kicker Caleb Sturgis has made multiple field goals in his last five games including going three for four in each of the last two games. On the season he’s 23/30 with three made field goals from beyond 50 yards with a long of 54. He’s also converted all 25 of his extra point attempts.

He finishes the season with a nice stretch provided the weather in Buffalo doesn’t turn ugly in week 16. He starts this week in Pittsburgh against the Steelers who allow the seventh most fantasy points to opposing kickers. Week 15, Sturgis and the Dolphins will be back in Miami to face the Patriots before taking on the Bills in Buffalo. As long as the weather isn’t a mess, he should be a top-ten option in both of those matchups before finishing with a really nice matchup against the Jets who he just scored 11 points against and who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing kickers.
