IDP Wrap Up: Week 13

T.J. Watt is making a case for DPOY with his production on the field this season. The fifth-year pro out of Wisconsin had a massive day against the Raven, accounting for six total tackles, a TFL, a forced fumble, and 3.5 sacks of Lamar Jackson. Watt has now contributed 47 tackles, 16 TFLs and 16 sacks in his 10 games played this season. The former first-round pick is the top edge rusher in IDP fantasy football right now and will be for years to come.

Raiding the IDP Waiver Wire: Week 14

“Raiding the IDP Waiver Wire” is written for fantasy football gamers in leagues that require a full complement of 11 defensive starters in leagues of 12 to 16 teams. Recommendations rely on scoring settings from FantasyPros.com, even though their value for passes defensed is low. We’ll look for options at both conventional and true defensive positions as they arise.

2020 IDP Wrap Up: Safeties

We learned that tackles are king at safety! The top five finishers in IDP scoring at safety all finished with more than 100 total tackles each through week 16. The top five stars of the safety position included Jordan Poyer, Budda Baker, Jessie Bates, Jeremy Chinn, and Adrian Phillips. Of those finishers, three are under the age of 26, and amazingly, Jeremy Chinn was able to crack the top five as a rookie. Chinn looks primed for another excellent year of production in 2021, so if you roster the Carolina safety, you are looking fine.

IDP Wrap Up: Week 12

WHAT WE LEARNED THIS WEEK The Atlanta defense came to play in a home drubbing of the Las Vegas Raiders. Throughout the game, the Falcons defenders were terrific, creating five turnovers, registering five sacks, and scoring a touchdown in the victory. Deion Jones, Jacob Tuioti-Mariner, and Steven Means lead the way for the Atlanta IDP producers. The Panthers defenders just put together back-to-back solid games against NFC North opponents. Last week, they shut out the Lions, and this week they scored two touchdowns in a close loss to the Vikings.  Jeremy Chinn scored both touchdowns, on consecutive snaps, to become the first defensive player to ever do that. Other IDP stars for Carolina were Zach Kerr and Jermaine Carter. On the road in Philadelphia, the Seattle Seahawks defenders were able to handle the Eagles offensive line with ease on Monday Night Football. In the game, the Seahawks managed to sack Carson Wentz six times while also intercepting him once. Players with big statistical games include Jamal Adams and K.J. Wright. TOP PLAYER PERFORMANCES Joey Bosa – DE –LOS ANGELES CHARGERS Bosa had the game of the year so far at defensive end. In his effort against Buffalo, Bosa accrued nine total tackles, six TFLs, recovered a fumble, defended a pass, and sacked Josh Allen three times. Bosa is in prime shape to contribute in a big way in the IDP playoffs. Tyrell Adams – LB – HOUSTON TEXANS Adams, a 28-year old fifth-year player out of West Georgia had a monster day on Thanksgiving. He has been on fire in his last six games, but in week 12, his 17 total tackles, two forced

Sell-Fish: The Players I’m Throwing Back In Dynasty

In this article, I’ll be discussing a few players that have been hyped up this offseason to the point where they have become obvious sells for me in dynasty formats. This article is not to say that these are bad players, but rather, their hype has exceeded their true value.

Jamal Adams Trade Story

Future Telling: Jamal Adams

Jamal Adams has been traded to the Seattle Seahawks by the New York Jets! Wow, very exciting news that I’m sure everyone has heard about but I still felt the need to shout it out, so to speak, for all to hear. Which means I was definitely wrong when I wrote just a few days that I didn’t foresee a deal happening before the season. It did and it was a big one that included safety Bradley McDougald, a first-round pick in 2021 and 2022, and a third-round pick in 2021. The Seahawks got Jamal Adams and a fourth-round pick in 2022 in return. That’s established, we know the trade details, let’s get to the real reason we’re here, to try to see the future

What If? A Jamal Adams Trade Story

Jamal Adams deserves to get paid. Is he worth the $20 million-plus a year he’s rumored to be seeking though? Today’s top-paid safeties don’t even make $15 million a year. The Jets say they want to make Adams a Jet for life, but they don’t seem motivated to sign Adams to any long term deals and why would they. From a business standpoint, it doesn’t make sense for the team. They still have him on contract, for much less, for the next two years. This has led to a lot of friction between the sides though and Adams has asked for a trade. His seven preferred destinations were the Ravens, Eagles, Cowboy, 49ers, Texans, Chiefs, and the Seahawks.  Some of these teams seem a little more feasible than others to me.
