Week 7 IDP Rankings, Streamers, and Notes
The big IDP news of the week happened just this Thursday morning, as our rankings were being finalized. It was pretty big news, too. Yannick Ngakoue was traded to the Baltimore Ravens! Let’s discuss just how big this news is, and whether it’s good or bad for his short and long term fantasy prospects, shall... Read More
Week 6 IDP Rankings, Streamers, and Notes
I am glad football is back, I really am. I am forever grateful that the players are risking their health for our amusement, and I am thankful for each snap I get to watch. Pretty much all of us feel this way, I would imagine. So take what I am about to say with a... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings and Streamers - Week 5
Let’s start Week 5 off with a piece of obvious, but apparently necessary, advice. It is advice that no IDP manager should need, but approximately 8% of IDP managers have to hear. Are you ready for this nugget of wisdom? Wait for it…. Here it comes…. Stop dropping the best defender in fantasy (Darius Leonard)!... Read More
Week 4 IDP Rankings, Streamers, and Notes
We are only three weeks into this young NFL season, and the IDP landscape is already looking like a wasteland. Before Week 3, fantasy managers were already without three of the top-15 IDP defenders after injuries took Derwin James, Nick Bosa, and Danielle Hunter away from us. Things are getting much worse now, with the... Read More
Week 3 IDP Rankings, Streamers, and Fades
Well… this past week was something, wasn't it? As you obviously know, a series of unfortunate events befell pretty much all of us at once! I mean first, Best Buy ran out of pre-orders for the Playstation 5, and then Andre Braugher lost at the Emmys! It’s practically all the fantasy football community can talk... Read More
Week 2 IDP Rankings (with Streamers and Fades)
That was quick, wasn’t it? We are already on to Week 2, with the pre-season… er, I mean Week 1 in the rearview mirror. It was a reasonably kind Week 1 to our IDP ranks and sleepers, too, with a 66% success rate for our Week1 Streamer and Fade predictions. It was an even better... Read More

Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 17 (Top 100)
If you're still in it to win it, you're going to need some extra help in Week 17. Defensive players are less prone to rest for the playoffs since they're usually on the giving end of punishing tackles but there are some players that have been shut down for the year. Let's look at the... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 16 (Top 100)
It's championship week, at least for the vast majority of fantasy football players. Your lineup decisions are tougher than ever, as you must weigh which is more important: upside or safety. If you are looking for a few tackles to avoid a goose egg in the points column, there are plenty of options out there... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 15 (Top 100)
One of the great things about implementing IDP in fantasy football is that it balances out some of the insanity that the offensive players produce in some weeks. If you started a lineup with Jimmy Garoppolo, Raheem Mostert, Boston Scott, A.J. Brown, Darius Slayton, and Noah Fant then you undoubtedly crushed your opponent while a... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 14 (Top 100)
The fantasy playoffs are here for most of us, so every position matters that much more. IDP spots often become an afterthought or a set-it-and-forget-it situation but it could be that linebacker who has a monster game or that key interception that makes the difference between winning or going home. Look to our streamer suggestions... Read More

If it cheers you up, just know that this Sunday features a near-full slate of games still, as bye weeks are over! Which defensive players can help push you through this weekend and... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 12 (Top 100)
You know how some weeks are full of high scores across the board, with most teams putting up 30+ points and piling up highlights on the offensive end? I don't get that feeling this week. My gut says that several games, even those already on the low end of the O/U spectrum, will fall short... Read More
Fantasy Football IDP Rankings for Week 11 (Top 100)
Don't underestimate the power of the IDP. We've already seen Joe Schobert put up a monster game on Thursday night with a sack, seven solo tackles, and two interceptions. Jamal Adams may have won some games single-handedly last week with his strip-sack for a TD along with eight tackles and another sack. Likewise, Jadveon Clowney... Read More
