There is close to no consistency at the kicker position in fantasy football. Many factors go into what makes a kicker a good start; it's not just whether the kicker is good.
Every week when these rankings come out, this reminder will continue to be given. The best way to start a kicker is seeing who is playing in a dome. It may not be crucial in September, but even a little wind can determine if a kick goes or not.
Here are our Week 4 kicker fantasy rankings.

Who are the best fantasy kickers in Week 4?
The top overall kicker this week is going to be Tyler Loop. He's continued to look sharp as the starter for the Ravens and gets a great matchup in Week 4 vs Kansas City.
Then you see the usual suspects at the top, like Brandon Aubrey and Harrison Butker.
Who are the best fantasy kicker sleepers in Week 4?
Spencer Shrader deserves more recognition; he's been on fire this season. In large part due to the Colts' offense being shockingly elite, but nonetheless, Shrader has been automatic. The Colts play the Rams at their place, which is, of course, indoors.
Matt Gay could also offer some value in Week 4. Gay struggled in Week 3, missing 2 FG attempts; however, the volume was there. The Washington offense can still move without Jayden Daniels, but it stalls out more frequently. In Week 4, the Commanders should still be with Marcus Mariota as the starting QB, and they play indoors against Arizona.
