15 Undervalued Defenders for IDP Fantasy Football Leagues in 2024

A lot has happened around the league since I pushed out my positional tier articles a few weeks back, and this is a great place to capture some of those crucial changes as we enter the heart of fantasy draft season.

Those tier articles have writeups that are still of value, but if you're drafting in the coming weeks, the IDP rankings are where you'll want to go. Those will be updated daily moving forward, and I'm available for 4for4 subscribers in our Discord at any time.

For this piece, I'm using my positional rankings compared to the Expert Consensus Rankings on FantasyPros.com. If there's a massive gap between my projection of a player and the "ECR," that's a pretty clear indicator that I value that player more than the general IDP community, and that's how we win.

I've written about a few of these players in other spots this season, but I want to plant my flag on a few of these guys to ensure they're priorities for you come draft day. I'm also going to stay near the top of each position's ADP here so that these recommendations are useful for even the shallowest leagues.
