Early Season Fantasy Football Rankings- Defense

Here we are at the beginning of the Fantasy Football. By beginning, I mean we can actually start signing up for the new league year. My feelings on drafting a Defense is simple: try and get one of the top 4 – 5, if not, play the Defense Merry-Go-Round. Simply play the match up game, and play the best available defense for that week. The kicker? I always draft a top defense. Because you can’t have a solid team without a solid D. There’s been a few changes in the league, however most of the cores of the dominant defenses remain the same. The biggest exception being the Ravens. Who have been gutted worse than a turkey at Thanksgiving. My biggest surprise will be the rise of the Jacksonville Jaguars’ Defense. We can thank Gus Bradley for that.
