Week 4 Easy IDP Rankings Start/Sit Charts

• Stable.

• Stable, but note that the only true full-time is the safeties and Myles Garrett. Everything else, including Za’Darius Smith, is more heavily rotating.

Green Bay Packers

Positional Matchup Ranking (vs. DET)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. EDGE/IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #17

• De’Vondre Campbell (ankle) was listed as a nonparticipant during the walkthrough on Tuesday.
• Isaiah McDuffie can fill in nicely in this case for Campbell; just understand there’s no guarantee yet.
• Rashan Gary broke out after his 2022 injury finally, but only with 38% of the snaps.

Houston Texans

Positional Matchup Ranking (vs. PIT)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. EDGE
4. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #19

• Interesting case: Denzel Perryman (hand) was out. The “vibe” and snap count back up that Henery To’oTo’o has likely indeed replaced Christain Harris, starting next to Perryman when he returns.
• Out of nowhere, ILB Blake Cashman played 63% to Harris’s 62% and To’oTo’o’s 95%.
• According to a local beat writer reports, Pitre (chest) is expected to return to practice this week. Eric Murray seems to be his direct backup and M.J. Stewarts for when Jimmie Ward (injury prone). Don’t trust Pitre his first week back to see a full load of snaps. They’ll likely ease him back in.
• The safety matchup on paper isn’t solid in this contest. Hence, the marks, not the drama.

Indianapolis Colts

Positional Matchup Ranking (vs. LAR)

1. ILB
2. EDGE
3. IDL
4. SAF

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #28

• Shaquille Leonard is still at about 70% of the snaps.
• E.J. Speed still holding around 50% and producing.
• Julian Blackmon is trying to emerge, becoming an option. But not looking great this week, so if he overachieves, we indeed may have something worth a waiver wire listing.

Jacksonville Jaguars

Positional Matchup Ranking (vs. ATL)

Top 3 Team-D play in Dirty-O Only Leagues.

1. SAF
2. EDGE/ILB
3. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #14

• Devin Lloyd (thumb) was injured during Week 3. Chad Muma stepped in a lot while Lloyd tried to still play.
• Edge rusher Travon Walker averaging 85% of the snaps, and Josh Allen isn’t close yet.
• Team-D may be #14, but it’s climbed fast from the bottom of the heap in Week 1, with a few years worth of history of always being near the top third or better in allowing the production of the edge.

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #24

• Drue Tranquill played full-time in place of an injured Nick Bolton (ankle).
• Also, note that many of the other starters sat out a lot in a blowout versus the Bears (41-10) in Week 3.

Los Angeles Chargers

Positional Matchup Ranking (at LVR)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. EDGE
4. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #23

• Backup edge rusher Tuli Tuipulotu is gaining a lot of momentum, with Joey Bosa (hamstring) playing sparingly.
• Eric Kendricks was out again. Kenneth Murray slid in as the full-time ILB.
• Nick Niemann has played around 77% of the snaps so far in the two games while Kendricks is out.
• Derwin James (hamstring) was replaced by J.T. Woods and did very little.
• Alohi Gilman gets a boost if Derwin James is out.

Los Angeles Rams

Positional Matchup Ranking (at IND)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. EDGE
4. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #8

• Rookie Byron Rozeboom becoming a solid redraft and strong dynasty IDP.

Las Vegas Raiders

Positional Matchup Ranking (at LAC)

1. SAF
2. ILB
3. EDGE
4. IDL

Miami Dolphins

Positional Matchup Ranking (at BUF)

1. SAF
2. IDL
3. ILB
4. EDGE

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #25

• Jaelan Phillips (oblique) is day-to-day.
• Andrew Van Ginkel is his backup and has been a risk in the past.
• Also, noting that in a 70 to 20 blowout over Denver, the Dolphins rested many starters.

Minnesota Vikings

Positional Matchup Ranking (at CAR)

1. ILB
2. EDGE
3. SAF
4. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #20

• Josh Metellus (shoulder) left the Week 3 contest and returned but is still questionable. When he still played 95% of the snaps, we have no replacement worth mentioning.
• Ivan Pace lost around 18% of his snaps and was down to 62%. It’s normal fluctuation at the team’s second ILB. It isn’t as warm and fuzzy as we thought we might get when that looked like it could change.

New England Patriots

Positional Matchup Ranking (at DAL)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. EDGE
4. IDL

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #29

• Christain Barmore had a large boost in snaps when Davon Godchaux (ankle) exited the Week 3 contest.
• Jahlani Tavai, the team’s second ILB, has ranged from 56% to 73% and landed at 60% of snaps in Week 3. That’s actually a little generous compared to his role last year with the Patriots, but still really risky. Especially when everything comes down the the flow of the game he’s currently playing.

New York Jets

Positional Matchup Ranking (at KAN)

1. ILB
2. SAF
3. IDL
4. EDGE

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #30

• Although Adrian Amos has been producing, we assume he’s still the backup to Tony Adams (hamstring).
• It’ll be really tough for IDL Quinnen Williams to bounce back this week, but he’s very capable of doing so.

Philadelphia Eagles

Positional Matchup Ranking (at WAS)

1. EDGE
2. IDL
3. ILB
4. SAF

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #4

• It’s about time to drop Haasan Reddick in even deeper leagues if he continues to flop, if you haven’t already. We did mark him weak. So this will be his 2023 breakout game, most likely.
• Nicholas Morrow isn’t getting the job done with Nakobe Dean still out. He’s only marked as it is because he keeps playing 100% of the snaps and weighs into our start/sit formula.
• Justin Evans (neck) is questionable. Prior to last week’s contest, Terrell Edmunds looked like a serviceable injury replacement when Reed Blankenship was out in Week 2.

Pittsburgh Steelers

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #8

• Noting, Cole Holcomb went down from Week 2’s 90% to 74% in Week 3

San Fransico 49ers

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #21

• If Dre Greenlaw (ankle) is out, Oren Burks can be a deep, serviceable default play.

Seattle Seahawks

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #7

•  If Jamal Adams ever plays after being activated, avoid that week’s Seattle safeties until it plays out. The starters are likely revamped, and who leads this unit in snap counts for sure? That includes Julian Love.

Tamps Bay Buccaneers

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #18

• Shaquil Barrett is still only about 60% of the snaps. We hope to see that start going up soon.

Tennessee Titans

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #32

Washington Commanders

Team-D Opponent Production Rank: #6
