Fantasy Football Defense Rankings 2011
Defenses in fantasy football are plentiful. Much like kickers, each team needs just one team defense in a head-to-head points league. As result, fantasy football team defenses can be picked up in the later rounds of the draft. Several key stats to look at include: rushing yards allowed, passing yards allowed, points allowed, interceptions, defensive fumbles recovered, and defensive touchdowns scored.
