Summary
Charlie Smyth holds a 83.0 dynasty score, ranking him third among kickers. Smyth’s 2025 season statistics suggest a consistent production trajectory, and he has two remaining years on his contract.
Projection Rationale
Smyth’s performance in 2025, with 60 fantasy points, indicates a stable production trajectory. Smyth has two years remaining on his contract with an annual salary of $234,000. His ability to maintain accuracy and volume will be vital to reaching his ceiling. Furthermore, Smyth’s consistent performance has been a staple in the Saints’ lineup, and it is likely that he will continue to be a key contributor to the team’s offense. The West Coast scheme employed by the Saints, under the coordination of Doug Nussmeier, also benefits Smyth’s fantasy production.
Injury Risk
Smyth was questionable for Week 17 in 2025 due to limited practice participation. His Verdict durability grade is at the 82nd percentile, indicating a relatively low risk of injury.
Opportunity Notes
Smyth has a stable 100% kicker role with the Saints, allowing him to focus on his performance without worrying about competition for the position.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Doug Nussmeier coordinates a West Coast offense with a 78.0% shotgun rate. Smyth’s fantasy production benefits from this scheme, as the West Coast offense often favors field goals and shorter field positions.
Ceiling / Floor
Smyth’s ceiling is K1-K2, requiring consistent accuracy and volume. His floor is K5, referencing his Verdict trade value of 540. Smyth’s ability to maintain a high level of performance will be vital to reaching his ceiling, while his floor provides a baseline for his value in dynasty leagues.
