New Orleans Saints PK Connor Barth was waived Saturday, Sept. 3.

Fantasy Tip: This means Kai Forbath will be New Orleans' kicker to start the season. He went just 9-for-13 with the Saints last year, however, so even kicking behind that offense doesn't give Forbath a ton of fantasy value until he proves more reliable.

The New Orleans Saints are expected to sign free-agent PK Connor Barth (Buccaneers), according to a source.

Fantasy Tip: Barth will compete with Kai Forbath to be the team's placekicker but fantasy owners can find more reliable options elsewhere.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers PK Connor Barth was released Monday, May 2.

Fantasy Tip: It's been a rough couple of days for Barth, who has officially been supplanted by rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo. View Aguayo as a lower starting fantasy kicker for now.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers PK Connor Barth is expected to be released Monday, May 2, because the team added PK Roberto Aguayo during the draft.

Fantasy Tip: Barth probably would have a chance to find a job with another team but is not one of the better kickers for fantasy owners.

Free-agent PK Connor Barth (Buccaneers) has re-signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tuesday, Oct. 6, as he beat out other kickers to replace PK Kyle Brindza. Brindza was released.

Fantasy Tip: Barth isn't a good option at kicker with the state of the offense right now, but he could be a matchup play later.

Free-agent PKs Nick Novak (Chargers), Kai Forbath (Redskins), Chris Boswell (Giants), Connor Barth (Buccaneers) and Giorgio Tavecchio (Raiders) are auditioning for the Houston Texans Tuesday, Sept. 29, according to sources. Texans PK Randy Bullock missed a 43-yard field goal and an extra point during the Week 3 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Fantasy Tip: Bullock is clearly on the hot seat, but the tryout may also just be a means of motivating the incumbent, too. Seasonal players will want to take a wait-and-see approach and stay the course until there is an official announcement. The Texans are averaging two field goal attempts per game through the first three weeks of the season, and the Houston defense projects favorably most weeks, so the job has value, especially in the right matchups.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers PK Connor Barth was released Friday, Sept. 4, while PK Patrick Murray (undisclosed) was waived/injured.

Fantasy Tip: Kyle Brindza will be the team's kicker this season after they traded for him earlier in the preseason. He probably will not be more than a bye week replacement for owners.

Free-agent PK Connor Barth (Broncos) agreed to terms with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers Wednesday, Aug. 26, on a two-year deal. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Fantasy Tip: Barth should be able to win the kicker job and is joining a team with a solid offense, but owners should be able to find better kicker options for their team.

The Denver Broncos signed free-agent PK Connor Barth (Buccaneers) to an undisclosed deal Tuesday, Nov. 25, after waiving PK Brandon McManus, according to a source.

Fantasy Tip: Barth should get plenty of opportunities to score in the Broncos offense and is worth a pickup if your team needs a kicker.

Free-agent PK Connor Barth (Buccaneers) will visit the Denver Broncos Tuesday, Nov. 25, for a kicking audition, according to sources.

Fantasy Tip: As is the case with Jay Feely, Brandon McManus has struggled since taking over for Matt Prater earlier this year. If signed, Barth would become a viable starter in one of the most prolific offenses in the NFL.

The team will also reduce his 2014 salary from $3.15 million to $2 million. He can recoup all of the lost money through a roster bonus that would give him $71,875 per game. Barth will spend the entire year on the Non-Football Injury list after tearing his Achilles' playing in a charity basketball game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano discussed how losing PK Connor Barth (Achilles') could affect the team's plans in 2013, saying Barth was a weapon with longer field goals. Schiano said he is not sure if PK Lawrence Tynes will be as effective from those distances. "I thought Connor was a weapon in the longer field goals," Schiano said. "He was exceptional over 40 yards. We'll have to play that out. I have not coached Lawrence at all. So, I couldn't tell you. I just look at the numbers. But we'll see. That'll all play itself out."

Fantasy Tip: Even if Tynes does not have the same distance Barth did, he is still a safe option for the Buccaneers and fantasy owners after converting on 33-of-39 attempts in 2012.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers restricted free-agent PK Connor Barth will likely be the team's top place kicker again in 2011. He converted 23 of 28 field goal attempts last season, and the team has appeared happy with his production. The Bucs may add another kicker during training camp, but the job appears to be Barth's to lose.

Head coach Raheem Morris said, "All he's done is come in here and make field goals for us and, really, be consistent. I know he missed a couple. But for the most part, he's been banging them." Morris added, "It's nice to see him grow up and mature and do things well. You definitely have to take him into consideration for the future. He's a young kicker with a strong leg."
