Fantasy Football Top 10 D/ST

#1 Los Angeles Rams

What the Rams did this offseason is comparable to playing Madden with the salary cap off and all trades enabled. It’s absolutely ridiculous.

The Rams defense already ranked high in fantasy. In 2018 there is not a team that has any business being as good defensively as LA.

2017 ranking: 4th

The Rams now have a defensive roster that looks like a Pro Bowl selection show. Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib are probably the best corner duo in the game. Aaron Donald, Michael Brockers, and Ndamukong Suh make the defensive line just brutal, r-rated brutal. Throw in the safety combo of John Johnson and LaMarcus Joyner in the mix and you have the meanest defense in the league.

The linebacker group isn’t as exciting, but the defense as a whole will be a failure if it finishes anything below first. If you are one of those guys that pick defenses before the first round, why choose any other team.

The Rams will be your top defense in Fantasy Football this season.
