Here are the top prospect defensemen to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – February edition!

As always, players rated within +/-5.0 rating points should be considered equal value, and at that point become a matter of team need (upside vs. immediate help vs. likelihood vs. track record vs. injury risk vs. age vs. wait time vs. certainty) or personal bias.
