2012 Experience: 6th season
Fantasy Football Outlook: Matt Prater went from the out-house to the pent-house when the trading of Tim Tebow and the addition of Peyton Manning, this off-season.
In the prime of his career, Prater should be a low round target kicker who will have no problems developing into an instant weekly starter, when Manning under-center.
We’ve known for years that Denver is a great field for long field-goal opportunities, and while the Broncos will be scoring more touchdowns this year, they will also place Prater in better situations for multiple attempts weekly.

Summer of 2011: Fantasy Projections
Matt Prater has turned into one of the better kickers in the game over the past two seasons, but a groin injury ended his season early in 2010. With all the projected turnover in Denver this off-season, and Prater’s health concerns, it’s hard to make of what his numbers will look like this season. Prater is worthy in talent of a starting kicker in ten team leagues but because of the team and health concerns you should look to other options to start the season.

2010 NFL Fantasy Football Player Rankings: Unfortunately, for Prater the Broncos parted ways with offensive weapons Brandon Marshall and Tony Scheffler this offseason. Even worse the team is in a state of flux with their quarterback situation.
With so many questions on offense, Prater’s fantasy value will suffer as we head into draft this summer. Look for Prater to be a solid option when the team faces teams, they can move the football against. Other than that you will want to have another option when they face good all around teams.
