New England Patriots Defense (D/ST, NE) - Fantasy Football Draft Values

CURRENT ADP: Rd. 22.3 (5th D/ST)

ANALYSIS: The Patriots had a dominant defense in the first half of 2019 (partly due to them playing very weak opponents), but the unit still finished as the top-ranked fantasy defense at the end of the season. It’s best to temper expectations heading into this season though, as the Pats lost LB Elandon Roberts, S Duron Harmon, DT Danny Shelton, LB Kyle Van Noy, and LB Jamie Collins. In addition, LB Dont’a Hightower and S Patrick Chung have opted out of the season, which is a huge blow to this unit. The Patriots still do return talent in 2020, which includes CB Jason McCourty, S Devin McCourty, and CB Stephon Gilmore. Last year, this unit was simply phenomenal.

They ranked first in fantasy points per game, first in points allowed, first in picks per game, eighth in fumble recoveries per game, eighth in sacks per game, first in total interceptions, first in fumble recoveries, eighth in sacks, ninth in quarterback hits, and first in defensive touchdowns.

These stats are based on the collection of talent that was present on the unit last season. For 2020, New England has lost a lot of key defensive pieces, so the unit is not a top-three fantasy defense. However, with Bill Belichick’s coaching and a strong secondary, there is a silver lining with this unit, so consider them a top-six to top-seven fantasy defense heading into 2020.
