K Rafael Gaglianone

Position Rank: 9

Overall Rank: 227

Gaglianone is recognized as one of the best kickers in the country by Yahoo and will likely be drafted in most leagues since he’s ranked 9 at his position. If you’re in a league without other big Wisconsin fans, he should be your guy. He’ll rack up points from kicking PAT’s after all of Wisconsin’s touchdowns. And he’ll have the trust of the coaching staff to take the longer, more rewarding, field goals to finish scoring drives.

Gaglianone has made several big kicks throughout his Wisconsin career. He’s one of the most underrated players on the entire roster because of his consistency. There isn’t much to him besides the fact that he just makes kicks.

You can take a gamble on another kicker, but you’ll get to see Gagalianone every week as a Badger fan so he’s the easiest option. Runs on kickers are usually the same as runs on defenses, but Gaglianone isn’t ranked as high in his position as Wisconsin’s defense. You can wait out the run on kickers and still get your guy here.

Outside of Jonathan Taylor, all of these players should be easily obtainable in your draft. All of them should be able to provide great value.
