2011 NFL Fantasy Football Team Defense Rankings

Ryan LesterJun 3, 2018

Here’s a first look at my 2011 team defense rankings. They are bound to change some as the player movement continues and injuries start to occur.

1. Philadelphia Eagles: Going to be tough to pass with that trio of corners (or duo if Asante Samuel is dealt).
2. Pittsburgh Steelers: Still steady. Still get to face their Ohio foes four times.
3. New York Jets: Revis Island should be better than it was last year. Scary.
4. Green Bay Packers: Clay Matthews, B.J. Raji and the Champs came a long way last year.
5. New England Patriots: If Bill can motivate Albert Haynesworth, look out.
6. Baltimore Ravens: Still solid after all these years.
7. New York Giants: Still a nice option even if they deal Osi.
8. San Diego Chargers: Really bounced back nicely last year.
9. Atlanta Falcons: Could Ray Edwards solidify their pass rush?
10. Chicago Bears: Peppers and Urlacher keep the defense relevant.
11. New Orleans Saints: Balanced offense should allow the defense more time to rest than in recent years.
12. Houston Texans: Really made an effort to improve their pass defense.
13. Detroit Lions: Ndamukong Suh was the real deal. He made a believer out of me, but more importantly his teammates.
14. Dallas Cowboys: Secondary is still a concern. If only they could have landed Asomugha.
15. Minnesota Vikings: Their defensive line was once a strength, but now is a major concern.
