If you absolutely must keep one, I'd keep Butker, but in an 8 team league, I'd rather roster depth at other positions in the offseason.

Ya it doesn't matter, cut them both if your league rules allow it and use the space to hold another position player. Justin Tucker is the only kicker that has any notable value difference over other kickers and be a "must hold" if you are not forced to carry a K during the offseason

Dude, in an 8 team league you absolutely need to keep both. Ideally you should add another kicker or two, just to be safe.

I would keep both a recommend picking up another kicker for some added depth at the position. Seriously though as other people have said, drop both and add a te/rb/wr then add a kicker before the season starts.

Agree with the sentiments of most comments on this thread. So there are 8 teams, does the league FORCE you to keep a kicker? And how many keepers per team? I will admit I kept Gostkowski in my 16 team, 16 keeper league for several years, but that is double the number of teams. Gostkowski has finished, according to our scoring system: 7, 2, 9, 1, 1, and 2, going back to 2013. I will consider putting him back into the draft pool, especially if not with the Patriots next year.
"Marathon Square" - 16 team full PPR league with 24 player roster. Keep 16 per year indefinitely, draft 8. Start 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 Team DST
QB: Jordan Love, Deshaun Watson
RB: Travis Etienne, Aaron Jones, Jamaal Williams, Kendre Miller, Jaleel McLaughlin, Sean Tucker, Deuce Vaughn
WR: A.J. Brown, Garrett Wilson, Tee Higgins, Calvin Ridley, Michael Wilson, Kendrick Bourne, Tutu Atwell, Allen Lazard, Isaiah Hodgins, Xavier Hutchinson
TE: T.J. Hockenson, Cole Kmet, Kylen Granson
K: Didn't make the playoffs in 2023 :cry: , and don't usually hold one in the offseason
Team DST: Cowboys, Lions

Picks:
2024: All my picks except 3rd rounder

Disclaimer: My one and only Championship in this league was way back in 2011. Therefore, take my replies with the appropriate grain of salt. :lol:

the answer of course is keep neither unless forced to as others have mentioned .
