Not everyone has an elite defense to plug in every week. Still, a mediocre defense can often deliver if the matchup is favorable.
This report is intended to help you quickly find Defensive Team free agent pickups with good-to-great matchups in future weeks. By looking ahead to future weeks, we are able to spot and land defenses with great matchups a week or more ahead of other owners. Planning ahead gives us an edge and saves waiver priority or bidding bucks.
For help with defensive pickups for this week, see the Defensive Team By Waiver Wire article published on Tuesdays and the weekly rankings published on Wednesdays (see the home page).
