David Akers vs Stover vs Kaeding (1 Viewer)

For Week 4, the LD shows Akers, then Kaeding, then Stover. I realize both Stover and Kaeding have been doing quite well, but if they are projected to have more points this week, why does the LD not reflect that for this week? I would think that Akers would be the best play for this week and would be ranked higher. (I was going to put this in the app. forum but figured since someone else has already mentioned rankings in this one, it must be ok.) I realize they're 'just kickers' but I HATE losing because of a kicker.

 
If you have all three you should drop two and keep Kaeding. His bye has past and there're more important players on your wire.
Unlike most visiting the Shark Pool, I'm in a TD ONLY league with 'pts is pts' (3 & 1 for kickers). (insert snicker here for NYCGangGreen). I do NOT have three kickers (I own Stover only), but could get any of the three mentioned, which is why I asked the question regarding ranking FOR THIS WEEK !! Kickers are the one position that can be picked up via the wire each week, and I don't understand why the rankings are as they are FOR THIS WEEK. I agree Kaeding is looking good going forward and I planned on picking him up AFTER this week. However, if there is not much difference in scoring for this week between Akers and Kaeding, I'd go with him this week. But there appears to be, according to the preliminary cheetsheet. Guess I'll wait for some projections to come out (other than the LD). I was hoping to get some reasons for the rankings, even if it isn't a priority in most leagues. (BTW, playing the kicker waiver wire all last year got me a significant advantage over other owners in the kicker position. Made a 'value' where there normally isn't one.)
