Andre Szmyt — 2026 Fantasy Outlook
The case for drafting him
Andre Szmyt handled kicking duties for Cleveland in 2025, converting 24 of 27 field goal attempts and 25 of 26 extra point attempts. Over the three-year window from 2023 through 2025, those aggregate numbers are identical — 24 field goals on 27 attempts and 25 extra points on 26 attempts — meaning his 2025 season represents the entirety of his recent workload. That accuracy rate on field goals is a real asset for a kicker, and Cleveland's offense will determine how many opportunities he sees in 2026. His bye falls in Week 11.
What the model projects
The projection for Szmyt is 64.7 half-PPR fantasy points this season. He ranks K30 at his position and #257 overall, placing him in Tier 9 on the board. His draft value is -65.2, meaning the projection sits below replacement level at the kicker position.

The range of outcomes
Kicker scoring is tightly tied to offensive volume and game script, and Szmyt's outcome band reflects that variance. His position rank of K30 and negative draft value signal that the projection does not anticipate a high-volume role. Drafters should weigh the realistic floor — a low-opportunity season on a team that may not generate consistent scoring chances — against the ceiling that comes with any kicker who maintains a strong field goal conversion rate when given the attempts.
How to draft him
Szmyt carries a draft value of -65.2 and ranks K30, both of which indicate he projects below replacement level at the position. There is no market ADP available for him, so no pick-cost guidance can be offered. At his current projection and rank, he is a low-priority target, and drafters building a kicker slot should weigh those numbers carefully before committing a pick.
