IDP Rankings – Week 15

IDP Rankings – Week 15

Paul Worrilow has been on fire for the Atlanta Falcons and has amassed an insane 83 total tackles in just six games. A high effort linebacker in the Luke Kuechly mold this undrafted free agent has pushed himself into the LB1 category but there are 23 linebackers with higher owned percentages in the Yahoo! game. Worrilow should be rostered in every IDP league, period.

LaVonte David went bonkers in week fourteen and comes in as out top ranked linebacker play for week fifteen. David went off to the tune of nine total tackles, a sack, two picks and two passes defended single handedly putting some teams over the top in IDP heavy scoring formats.

Barry Church continues to be the cream of the defensive back crop and leads all DB’s with a linebacker-esque 88 solo tackles. Church is now the most owned defensive back in all of fantasy football and comes in at number one in our week fifteen rankings.

Morgan Burnett has put up 10.5 total tackles over the past four weeks and is finally living up to his preseason billing as the top ranked defensive back in fantasy. Now is the time to make the add as Burnett looks completely healthy and is putting up the numbers to back it up.

Chandler Jones remains a fixture in our top three defensive line plays and comes in at number two overall this week against the Dolphins. In fantasy it is more advisable to roster the tackle machine lineman who also get sacks rather than sack specialists as it is foolhardy to count on week to week sacks regardless of the talent.

Olivier Vernon has been on fire over the past four weeks racking up 5.6 tackles and 1.8 sacks over that time period. Vernon is really coming into his own and should continue to be a force across from Cameron Wake. Vernon should be owned in all 12-team and up IDP leagues.
