What's up fantasy football fans, my name is JT Magnum here, along with siggy guns and welcome to the last edition of our rankings is the defense's, our top 20 defenses and let's get right into it and number 20 I have Indianapolis the New York Giants Pittsburgh Steelers Baltimore Ravens Jacksonville Jaguars Buffalo, Bills, Washington, Redskins, Minnesota, Vikings, New, England, Patriots and Oakland Raiders and I'll talk about the Vikings.
This defense was phenomenal last year, they're only gonna get better.
They got.
They got a good secondary, a ridiculously good defensive line in latin inside of linebackers.
They gave seattle absolute fits last year in that game should have won that game.
It wasn't for a missed field goal.
They would have moved on to the arm into the playoffs and face that Carolina Panthers team, but they didn't get a chance because of that missed field goal, but but still I, think they're.
I.
Think they're gonna be even better more improved this year and now, with news with Teddy Bridgewater out, they're gonna have to even more improve because I don't know who Minnesota's gonna start.
Obviously they have Shawn.
Hill is their backup at the moment, but who knows that Minnesota's gonna sign another quarterback.
What they're gonna do, but that defense is gonna, need a set up step up even more and they have a they have a really good young linebacker core.
That's what I like and and I see them doing great things this year.
They also still have quarter L or quarter cordarrelle Patterson, who can run kickoff returns and do pretty much anything with punt returns like that.
So they're always a threat to do that as well.
So they can get you up.
They can get you some scores this year.
I think they might do that and they definitely get you some sacks.
So he got through your 20 through 11 20 through 11 I got Miami Jacksonville Indianapolis Oakland Washington Baltimore Philadelphia Green Bay, New England and Pittsburgh Pittsburgh at number 11 I'm gonna talk about the Patriots.
Obviously, you saw the preseason game yet receptions to me, like the first few possessions, I mean right away that no in the defense has grown up pretty quick and doing that was always the question with the Patriots as how was their defense here, they're, so young, the last few years, and now it seems like they might have it all together and that might be pretty scared for the rest of league, because obviously the offense, even though Brady's out four games, he's not going to go anywhere as long as Brady and Belichick.
Is there so I think the New Zealand Defence is gonna, surprise a lot of people they used to be a pick.
That was always a sexy pic to pick.
You know in years past, with fantasy and I think they might be back to that definitely yeah they just they lose players, but still plug them in they get rid of players, maybe some big-name players sometimes and trade them, and they still plug in guys that just do amazing, that's just it's just crazy I know.
It's me my ten through one, our Green Bay Houston, New, York, Jets, Los, Angeles, Rams, Kansas, City, Chiefs, Cincinnati, Bengals, Arizona, Cardinals, Carolina, Panthers, Seattle Seahawks, and the Denver Broncos still at number.
One and I'll talk about Seattle at number.
Two, that's the team that just they still have the LOB.
They still have that defensive line because they just have a sick defense.
They can get to the quarterback on almost anytime.
They want to.
They have linebackers that can cover tight ends that can cover they have linebackers that can cover wide receivers um.
They had, of course, the LOB that get that gets turnovers and then, of course, defense and special teams.
It is, they have Tyler Lockett Tyler Lockett can run back, punt returns the kick returns almost at any time and now, with the NFL doing a lot, less kicking they're, not gonna.
If you have, if you kick the ball on to a touchback, you get it at the 25 yard line.
So you're gonna see a lot more kicks and a lot more opportunities for Tyler Lockett to run it back and he is dangerous, so I like them.
A lot they're, probably one of the first divas that should go off the board.
Just for that factor alone.
They can score off special teams.
Three, my ten through one, the New York Jets, are in pretty low huh Minnesota Los Angeles Cincinnati Houston, Kansas, City, Denver, Arizona, Seattle and I've Carolina's number one more so because of the schedule and I want to talk about Denver having those four with no quarterback.
However, I just do not see the offense being on the field.
That long and I think the defense is gonna, get pretty tired, real quick.
So that is the main concern.
I have about Denver's defense.
A lot of people been picking them solely on what they did in the playoff run last year, but before the playoff run, they were a frustrating defense.
If you hadn't, because some weeks they were excellent.
Some weeks it seemed like they were non-existent so that Jekyll and Hyde defense I'm kind of scared, because now they have no offense and I'm worried that it's gonna be like what people felt.
Carolina was last year which, if he had Carolina two years ago, they were awesome and then last year you expected the same thing and then we gained word.
They were like well, this isn't Carolina's defense I wanted to draft, so just be careful with Denver's defense.
I guess is the better way to say because it seems like Kansas, City, Denver and Carolina they're always up there in the end.
But when you have them, it doesn't feel like they're, a top defense I've been frustrated.
Defense I may cut in the city too, that's another one.
Also last year, touchdowns I know what Marcus Peters and then there days where they were sawed Denver was the probably the most consistent Seattle couple games like against Pittsburgh.
They kind of messed up, and there was a couple games here and there and Seattle even had a couple games on the lapses against Arizona.
They had a couple games like that.
They were just giving up points and stuff like that, but but for the most part, with Tyler Lockett that changes everything, because the dude just runs back kicks and stuff.
It's just it's those teams that you gotta, you know you just never know, but there's always a breakout team that will just all of a sudden just do well so we'll see what happens who's that team this year, my I think it's the Rams.
That's why I think it's gonna be the breakout team this year for defense, but we'll see, but thanks for watching guys stay tuned, the next fantasy football fiends video will actually be the stardom situm show that would be Tuesday September 6, that's before the season starts on the believe on September 8th on a Thursday on started, Mesilla should be out every Tuesday you'll you'll be able to see it I'm still debating whether or not to do the live show.

Never Draft More Than One Defense
Therefore, there's no reason to have two defenses clog up your bench. In the past, I've even gone without drafting a defense so that I could draft a player with upside instead. Then I just fill the void before Week 1. Also, no one is going to trade you for your extra "stud" defense.

Instead, you should prioritize running backs, wide receivers, and even a tight end before grabbing a quarterback. Also, you don't need to draft a backup quarterback, and probably shouldn't. There will come a time when your quarterback has a bye week, and you will have to find another quarterback to play.
