Eagles Defense Looks Like A Good Week 11 Choice
4 years agoThe Philadelphia Eagles Defense has been all over the place as a fantasy unit this season. In standard scoring formats, here are their finishes throughout the season in terms of fantasy defense ranks: 22, 29, 9, 2, 25, 21, 6, 2, 20. They clearly have top-10 upside but bottom-10 downside as well. They're becoming increasingly harder to predict, as they were expected to perform well against the New York Giants last week only to end up putting up just three fantasy points. This week, against the Cleveland Browns, they are again being ranked well, currently as the sixth or seventh-ranked defense depending on where you look. They can certainly finish in the top-10 this week, but fantasy managers need to be aware of the downside as well. They are one of the rare "boom-or-bust" options in terms of fantasy defenses.
