Raiders' Sebastian Janikowski: Wins out in position battle

Janikowski will remain the Raiders' starting kicker in 2016 after the team waived his lone challenger, Giorgio Tavecchio.

Analysis:

Although Janikowski overcame early preseason struggles and has made the team yet again, he should not be rostered in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues; the Raiders attempted the 27th-most field goal attempts in 2015 under first-year head coach Jack Del Rio, following a 31st-place rank in 2014. Consequently, The Polish Cannon didn't finish as a top-20 fantasy kicker in either season.
