These rankings are for redraft IDP leagues that use 1-2-3 scoring and start two to three players each at DL, LB, and DB. Some players will have dual eligibility. For that reason, I have placed all of those players on the DB list as opposed to the LB list since their primary job is to play in the secondary. As always, make sure to check your league’s current scoring structure before you draft, as it could change positional values and player values.
What!? Your fantasy football league wasn’t hosted on Fantrax last season!? Once you see how Fantrax stacks up to the competition, we think you’ll be singing a different tune next season.
