Here are the Top 50 defensemen to own in your points-only keeper league – July edition!
This month the new draftees are in! This year's crop was heavier in terms of high-upside defensemen so they really made waves today (as opposed to the list of forwards posted Wednesday). As always, players within +/- 5.0 ratings of each other should be considered equal value and at that point become a matter of personal preference or team needs. o=offense, os=offensive small, p=power forward t=two-way
