2007 Team Defense Rankings

Also, be sure to check out the Defensive Matchups page and Matchup Grades
|
Group 1
Bears
Ravens
Patriots
Dolphins
Jaguars
|
Defenses should generally be ranked the same in a keeper league as they are in a redraft league. Most keeper owners don't hold on to a D waiting for them to get good, like you might do with a position player. |
Group 2
Vikings
Cowboys
Chargers
Steelers
Eagles
Raiders
Panthers
Broncos
|
Some teams do have key players that are getting old, so if all else is equal, you might want to knock them down on your list a little.
- Tampa Bay (Brooks, Ronde; Quarles just retired.)
- Redskins (Fletcher, Springs)
- Chiefs (Law, Surtain, Donnie Edwards)
- Falcons (Milloy, Brooking)
- Miami (Thomas, Taylor)

Group 3
Packers
Bills
Jets
Chiefs
Saints
Buccaneers
Seahawks
|
These are the last of the Ds that you'll want to draft this year. Try and find one of the D's in this group that has good matchups when your starting D is on a bye or playing a tough offense. Use our Defensive Matchup Grades to help. |
