Remember what mom always used to say? "You can't keep an old kicker down." OK, no way she never said that, but we did. John Carney is a 45-year-old shining example of why you never draft kickers before the last couple of rounds. Carney wasn't even on most radars after the Garrett Hartley suspension, yet he already has 21 points through two games of the season. Backed by a high-powered New Orleans offense, Carney should be one of the rare consistent kickers you leave in your lineup. I also think the same goes for Nate Kaeding, who has never dipped below 112 points in a season. Your Week 3 kicker ranking buffet is after the jump. 1. Nate Kaeding, SD vs. MIA
2. Lawrence Tynes, NYG at TB
3. Jay Feely, NYJ vs. TEN
4. John Carney. NO @ BUF
5. Neil Rackers, ARI vs. IND
6. Jason Hanson, DET vs. WAS
7. Joe Nedney, SF @ MIN
8. Kris Brown, HOU vs. JAC
9. Mason Crosby, GB @ STL
10. Stephen Gostkowski, NE vs. ATL
11. Robbie Gould, CHI @ SEA
12. Ryan Longwell, MIN vs. SF
13. David Akers, PHI vs. KC
14. Nick Folk, DAL vs. CAR
15. Rian Lindell, BUF vs. NO
16. Rob Bironas, TEN @ NYJ
17. Jason Elam, ATL @ NE
18. Josh Scobee, JAC @ HOU
19. Adam Vinatieri, IND @ ARI
20. Dan Carpenter, MIA @ SD
21. Shaun Suisham, WAS @ DET
22. Matt Prater, DEN @ OAK
23. Steven Hauschka, BAL vs. CLE
24. John Kasay, CAR @ DAL
25. Shayne Graham, CIN vs. PIT
26. Jeff Reed, PIT @ CIN
27. Sebastian Janikowski, OAK vs. DEN
28. Olindo Mare, SEA vs. CHI

Jay Feely is in the FA pool. Should I drop John Carney for him?
