RotoBaller's defense (D/ST) fantasy football rankings, updated for August 2024. Draft winning teams with our (D/ST) fantasy football rankings and tiers.
At RotoBaller HQ, we are grinding away and providing fresh fantasy football content daily to help you crush your drafts. For leagues that still use team defenses, we've got you covered with our NFL team's 2024 fantasy football defense (D/ST) rankings, updated recently for August 2024.
Fantasy managers usually stream defenses each week, and most don't draft a starting DST until the later rounds of their drafts. However, a few team defenses always end up being value picks and can be a difference-maker for your team, such as the 2023 Dallas Cowboys and the 2022 New England Patriots. Below, you will see where key defenses such as the Cowboys, Jets, Eagles, Steelers, Texans, Patriots, Lions, and Raiders are listed in our rankings.
Our defense (D/DST) fantasy football rankings are put together by NFL lead analysts Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison, and Scott Engel. Below, you will also see recent fantasy football news and NFL headlines for team defenses, which are accounted for within these updated draft rankings.
