Status of defense

Postby Pantherbro13 » Thu Jun 29, 2017 4:55 pm

Team is in signature. Just want some feedback on my IDPs. Starting requirements are 2-3 DL, 3-4 LB and 4-5 DB. I've typically geared to 2 DL, 4 LB and 5 DB. My LBs are by far my best on defense. Reshad Jones scored me 300+ points two seasons ago but his injury killed my contributions on defense last season. Current draft plans for IDP is targeting Myles Garrett or Jamal Adams at 2.11.

Points for the league are tackle=2 points, assist=1 point, sack=3 points, interception= 4 points, interception yards=1 point per 10 yards, forced fumble=2 points, fumble recovery=2 points, fumble return yards=1 point per 10 yards, pass deflection=2 points and defensive TDs=6 points.

Majority of guys in my league are open to trading IDPs minus Kuechly, Watt and Aaron Donald. Price on those three are extremely high and rightfully so. 3-4 edge rushers are typically not good options on this league if they rely on sacks. What type of moves should I be looking to make? Open to all suggestions.

I would stay away from rookie LB with higher picks....too many questions outside of Jarred Davis.
Adams is a good target...the jets D will be on the field a lot, and they still have a good lass rush.
I'm a huge Josh Jones and Budda Baker fan. Jones will play the nickel backer/3rd Safety and take over for Burnett next year. Budda is just a tackler and play maker maybe not quite honey badger but close...
I play in about 10 leagues like this with full 53 man rosters. Start 11 1-5 DL 3-5 LB 1-5 CB 2-5 S
I've done very well in these leagues.

I like Jarred Davis a lot. I actually just traded Tahir Whitehead for a 2018 4th round pick because Davis is taking over MIKE. Reuben Foster too, 49ers defense will be busy this year. I'm only contemplating Garrett if he's listed as a DE not LB. I think Adams is my top option at 2.11, I see him putting numbers being on the field a lot and for every snap. He's my top early candidate for DROY. I like Josh Jones, saw a lot of him at NC State. Not sure he's manning the nickel this year I read they switched Demarious Randall to nickel and that Blake Martinez is looking good with one ILB spot. He may be given the opportunity to earn it but not sure he actually earns it this year. Personally think next year is more likely at safety is when he sees more snaps. Jones or Baker could be targets if they're available in the 4th. Got an extra 4th next year in my back pocket to use as trade bait and move back into the draft if I want to.
