2007 GNUru Fantasy Football Defensive Back Rankings

The defensive back position in Individual Defensive Player (IDP) fantasy football leagues is about as unpredictable as they come. Since DBs usually don't rack up many tackles, points scored rely heavily upon turnovers- interceptions to be more specific. Compounding the problem with DBs is the fact that quarterbacks often avoid throwing risky passes when they know a quality DB is lurking in the area. So unless you are able to land a top DB like Champ Bailey or Adrian Wilson, your best bet is to go with a DB that accumulates plenty of tackles. Often times it is the defensive scheme that allows DBs to get tackles or a weak linebacking corps so it important to keep surfing the waiver wire to see who will emerge as a solid fantasy DB ala Antoine Winfield.

2007 GNUru Fantasy Football Defensive Lineman Rankings!!

For those in Individual Defensive Player (IDP) fantasy football leagues, the defensive lineman position can either be feast or famine. Defensive lineman rarely get enough tackles in a given game to make a huge difference, however, many league heavily reward sacks. Sacks are unpredictable so the strategy in selecting linemen can be tricky. Take for example Justin Smith last year. He had 6.5 sacks in his first 7 games but only had ½ a sack the rest of the season (9 games).
