IDP Rankings for 2024 Fantasy Football Drafts (Individual Defensive Players) - Nick Bosa, Matthew Judon, Ivan Pace Jr., Laiatu Latu, more

49ers Defense D/ST Streamers, Rankings, Waiver Wire - Nick Bosa Fantasy Football IDP

Updated 2024 fantasy football IDP draft rankings for individual defensive players - rankings for linebackers (LB), defensive linemen (DL), defensive backs (DB).

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to more fantasy football rankings. Today, we will review our NFL team's updated 2024 fantasy football IDP rankings (top 150) for IDP formats. IDP league formats have been gaining popularity recently and offer a different alternative league setup instead of using a standard team defense. For anyone unfamiliar with fantasy football IDP leagues, this type of league format requires you to start individual defensive players (IDP) such as linebackers, defensive linemen, and defensive backs.

RotoBaller lead fantasy football analysts Chris Gregory and Mitch Blatt have put together their individual 2024 IDP rankings. These IDP rankings have been put together after the NFL Draft, so they will contain the 2024 NFL rookie class. Let's see where players such as Nick Bosa, Matthew Judon, Ivan Pace Jr., Patrick Queen, Alex Singleton, Khalil Mack, Laiatu Latu, and L'Jarius Sneed rank. The IDP rankings will be tweaked throughout the preseason, so check back regularly for updates.

In addition to these IDP draft rankings, be sure also to check out our team's fantasy football articles and analysis -- they discuss draft sleepers, busts, players to target and avoid, rookies in the best landing spots, and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have -- download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top NFL news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts.
