Dynasty IDP Rankings & Trade Values

Last Updated: December 18, 2025

Individual Defensive Players (IDP) can be the cheat code to winning dynasty championships. While offense gets the glory, having elite Linebackers (LB) or dominant Defensive Linemen (DL) provides a massive weekly floor.

Our rankings combine age, production, and trade value to help you identify the best assets. Tip: In most formats, Linebackers are the "Running Backs" of the defense—scarce and high-scoring.
