Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee has been a monster so far this season since taking over at WILB in Big D, ranking second in the National Football League with 31 total tackles, and the second year pro from Linebacker U heads the list of top individual defensive player plays for Week 4.

1.) Sean Lee - ILB, Dallas Cowboys (vs. DET): In addition to those 31 tackles the Penn State product has also intercepted two passes and gets a matchup this week with a potent Detroit Lions offense that's been middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to opposing linebackers.

2.) Ray Lewis - ILB, Baltimore Ravens (vs. NYJ): With 25 tackles, a sack, two forced fumbles and an interception Lewis shows no signs of slowing down at age 36 and gets a favorable matchup in primetime against the New York Jets Sunday night.

3.) Jason Pierre-Paul - DE, New York Giants (at ARI): With 4.5 sacks through three games and the playing status of defensive ends Justin Tuck and Osi Umenyiora up in the air at this point Pierre-Paul is the top fantasy play among defensive linemen this week.

4.) Charles Johnson - DE, Carolina Panthers (at CHI): Both Johnson and defensive end Greg Hardy have performed well despite the Panthers facing the fewest pass attempts in the NFL, and the Bears offensive line isn't exactly famous for their pass blocking prowess.

5.) Tyvon Branch - SS, Oakland Raiders (vs. NE): Branch has averaged 8 tackles per contest over the season's first three games and squares off against a New England Patriots team that has allowed the most fantasy points to opposing defensive backs in the league this year.
