Tempted to start the run on defenses once you've established your starting lineup? Don't. You have no idea who the best defense is going to be this year and neither does anyone else. Take a look at the preseason defensive ranks Yahoo! served up last season.
That's miles away from how the defensive rankings actually shook out. Anyone who reached for the 49ers highly ranked defense was left in the cold. Meanwhile, the few people who relied on the Cardinals and Lions last season were left happy.
Certain defenses like the Steelers, Packers and Bears are safe, but not a single defense is worth reaching for. The difference between the top defense selected and the 10th defense selected will likely break down to four points a week or less.
That may seem like a lot, but if you find yourself debating between building your depth and adding talent or swooping in on what you think is a surefire defense, you need to reevaluate.
Fantasy defenses are the most overrated position in nearly every league. Wait until the wee late rounds while your friends waste picks on defense(s) while you load up the rest of your team.
The important thing is to target a defense late with huge upside. The Lions have one of the most underrated defenses in the league. Not many people are going to be jumping at the chance to bring them in, but you'll probably have a chance to steal a legitimate defense late.
Dallas is due for a huge defensive year with the change in culture instilled and their talent being under the watchful eye of Rob Ryan.
There are plenty of defenses that will go neglected in your draft and the important thing is that you wait to get a sleeper defense, rather than waste a pick on an elite one. The only pick you should make after your defense in a standard draft is on a kicker.
