An average of nearly 10 sacks per season provides a floor that should keep him at the top of fantasy drafts and overall point totals for the next few seasons. He now has 58 sacks in his six-year career despite missing 15 games. His 10.5 sacks in 2021 were accompanied by a very solid 51 total tackles, which ranks inside the top 15 among edge rushers. EDGE JOEY BOSA, LOS ANGELES CHARGERSīosa is coming off his third straight season with a 90.0-plus pass-rushing grade, keeping himself in the conversation as one of the best pass-rushers in football. The best is yet to come from the former No. While it was a frustrating 2021 for Young, his physical tools, youth and opportunity are all positives when projecting his progression. Young’s 77.1 pass-rush grade since entering the NFL is still very good, but we haven't quite seen him consistently dominate in the same way that led to his 96.4 pass-rush grade during his final season at Ohio State. He finished the year with just 1.5 sacks in nine games, with an ACL tear cutting short his campaign. Young’s sophomore NFL season did not go as planned. I’m not one to bet against Donald, especially in defensive tackle-required leagues where the top-tier talent is thinner than at any IDP position, so continue to draft and value him highly until he gives us a reason not to. DI AARON DONALD, LOS ANGELES RAMSĪrguably the greatest defensive player of all time, Donald is a perfect example of an NFL “unicorn.” Earning 90.0-plus overall grades in each of his NFL seasons with pass-rush grades to match in every year after his rookie season, Donald has shown no signs of slowing down, but it’s probably coming at some point … right? He is certainly still an elite option, but these are some of the tie-breakers to consider when ranking players for dynasty leagues. Watt finished with 62 pressures, the lowest of his past three seasons, and 36.6% of those pressures were classified as cleanup or pursuit, which was among the five highest rates among edge defenders in 2021.Īccompanied by an unstable 5.3% sack rate - 1.8% is the average for his position - Watt may never top his 2021 numbers.
We cannot overlook Watt’s production this past season, but we can provide context for why he is unlikely to repeat it. Whether it’s Bosa, Garrett or Watt, fantasy football drafters really can't go wrong with their first choice in an IDP dynasty startup draft this offseason.Īfter tying the NFL sack record in 2021, Watt is coming off his best season yet, but there’s reason to believe it doesn’t get better than 2021. There's not much to argue about regarding Garrett, who has undoubtedly established himself as an elite talent, earning 90.0-plus pass-rush grades in each of the past three seasons. The minor difference between the two simply comes down to age, as Garrett is entering his sixth season while Bosa is about to enter his fourth. Garrett was the only other edge defender besides Bosa to finish top five at his position in pass-rush grade (92.7), pressures (78) and sacks (16) in 2021. Bosa leads a select few who fall into this category, separating himself from the pack as an irreplaceable piece for dynasty IDP rosters. While true position designations add more talent to the pot at the edge position, elite and reliable talents are still few and far between.
He finished top five at his position in pass-rush grade (89.8), pressures (75) and sacks (15.5) in just his third NFL season, and he is now poised to be an elite IDP option for many years to come. 3 overall player on this list just a season ago, Bosa earned his No. This is now version 2.0 - these rankings are going to change throughout the offseason, so be sure to check the rankings page for updates and to sort by position.Īfter ranking as the top edge defender and the No.This list assumes true position (DI, EDGE LB, CB, S) for players (e.g., outside linebackers are considered “edge defenders” to reflect real NFL value).This list is designed to create the best long-term dynasty roster.
