The regular season is, unfortunately, over. It is time to get your fantasy football angst out or continue celebrating even if you don’t play IDP, defense matters. Whatever side of the fantasy football fortunes you landed this year, if you played IDP formats, you have some players to thank. Even if you weren’t playing IDP, […]

Those teams are Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers and the San Francisco 49ers. NFL Week 9 IDP. While these teams may not have you worried on the offensive end […]

The injury bug has not only affected the offensive side of the ball. Defensive players are dropping like a prom dress, as well. Very few teams have not seen an injury to a vital part of their defense. Unfortunately, that also means an injury to a vital part of your fantasy IDP rosters. Here are […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It is getting chaotic out there. Between injuries and suspensions, your individual defensive players (IDP) roster might look a little bare. I’m here to break down IDP rankings and plays with you. So, if you have a healthy stud or someone close to resembling a healthy stud go ahead and play him. But for those […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It is Week 3 and there are still some very good IDP players that are not rostered. We have managed to get this far without an excruciating amount of IDP-relevant injuries (knock on wood), so now it is time to trust what we are seeing on the field. Last week there was some impressive rookie […]

We made it through Week 1. Now the evaluation with (some) current stats can begin. Doesn’t mean it is going to be perfect…or will it, it just means we know what happened last week as opposed to last year. The one-week sample size isn’t ideal, but hey, I maintain it is better than going off […]

It is the first week of the rest of our 2022 fantasy football season. Fantasy fortunes are not won or lost this week, but it just feels good to get a Week 1 win under your belt. It is Week 1 for everyone. The preseason is diminished to a shell of itself. The movement of […]

IDP Training Camp Battle: Dallas Cowboys Linebackers
August 22, 2021 | IDP Report |by: Jordan Loupe
If there’s one buzzword that coaches absolutely love to use this time of year, it’s “competition.” Hey coach, how’s your first round rookie looking? “He’s competing every day, and that’s all we can ask of him.” Wow, thanks… Or how about this one? “We love the additions we made through free agency and the draft, it’s added some great competition to our locker room, and it’s pushing everyone to be better.” Blah, blah, blah. These guys really know how to say something without saying a thing don’t they? In all honesty, most of the competition happens on the back end of the roster, as teams have to decide who to keep and who to cut as they trim the roster to 53 players. Most of these decisions don’t have a major impact on fantasy football, as we already have a good idea who the impact players are. There are always a few legitimate competitions, however, that WILL make a difference for your IDP rosters. Since coaches rarely tell us exactly what their plans are, I’m here to help you read the tea leaves for one of the top defensive battles in the league, the Dallas Cowboys linebackers.

IDP Waiver Wire: Week 2
September 16, 2020 | 2020 Fantasy Football, IDP Report, IDP Waiver Wire Pickups | 7 Commentsby: GasDoc
Did someone convince you to play IDP? Enjoying it? Played before and are basking in the glory of still winning despite not starting Marcus Maye? Need some waiver advice? Let’s take a quick look at last week’s highlights and then see who can help you this week and the rest of the season on the IDP waiver wire.
The Football Team’s defensive line were the stars of the week. Eight sacks of Carson Wentz led by Ryan Kerrigan’s 2 sacks. Rookie Chase Young looked good and had 1.5 sacks along with unheralded NT Matt Ioannidis. Are they that good? Well….they’re good, but don’t expect this production across the board each week. The Eagles were playing with a decimated offensive line. The only player playing their projected position was C Jason Kelce. All-Pro G Brandon Brooks and LT Andre Dillard are done for the season. Lane Johnson missed the game still recovering from ankle surgery and Jason Peters, signed to replace Brooks at guard moved over to left tackle, a position that the Eagles moved on from him after last season. The Football Team had its way with a second and third-string line. Do not expect the same production in Arizona, but they are a good group and will be heard from again.

August 16, 2020 | 2020 Fantasy Football, IDP Report |by: GasDoc
Jerry Jones is doing everything he can to improve the Cowboys. The signing of Everson Griffen is another step in the right direction. Griffen and Jadeveon Clowney were the best two remaining edge rushers in free agency and Jones saved money by grabbing Griffen. How does the signing with Dallas affect his fantasy value in IDP leagues?
Please, blog, may I have some more? Two Late Round IDP Flyers (Not from Philadelphia)
August 2, 2020 | 2020 Fantasy Football, IDP Report |by: GasDoc
Can you win your league with your first round pick? Maybe, but it can definitely lose you your league. When you take late round flyers (not the ones from Philadelphia since this isn’t a hockey article), these are the moves that help. There are two players I’ve come across that I believe can be difference makers in the late rounds of your IDP drafts. Defensive lineman Kemoko Turay of the Colts and linebacker Drue Tranquill are highlighted here.
The Colts’ acquired Justin Houston last year, and he led the team in sacks with 11. He averaged 17.2 pts/100 snaps per Fantasy Data which led the league by DL with over 500 snaps. Another Colts player who was limited by injury to just 84 snaps, was second in the league with 21.7pts/100 snaps. Right now he is listed as a backup to Al-Quadin Muhammad per ESPN, but if can produce like he has when healthy, Kemoko Turay may be that breakout candidate that can help your IDP team this year.
A second round pick in 2018, Turay played in just 385 snaps and had 4 sacks and 13 QB hits. Last year in his limited 84 snaps, he had 1.5 sacks and 5 QB hits. Pro Football Focus gave him a 91.3 grade last year which compared to TJ Watt’s 91.3, Joey Bosa’s 89.8, and Carlos Dunlap’s 89.7.
Please, blog, may I have some more? The Doc’s Stock Report: Jamal Adams
July 26, 2020 | Fantasy Football Analysis, Fantasy Football Strategy, IDP Rankings, IDP Report |by: GasDoc
Joe Douglas traded the best player on his team. The Jets, a perennial team of dysfunction, has found itself a worse team than it was less than 24 hours ago. Did they get a good return for a player who was vocal about his displeasure and contract status? Absolutely. When comparing this trade to the Dolphins trade for Minkah Fitzpatrick, the Dolphins were absolutely ripped off by the Steelers.
Jamal Adams and a fourth round pick go from the Jets to the Seahawks for Bradley McDougald, two first round picks and a third round pick. The Jets made out well and will have two first round picks in each of the next two drafts. The Seahawks get a top 5 safety, who some consider the best safety in the league. So where does this leave Adams’ fantasy value? Stock DOWN is the forecast.
