Here are the Top 50 prospect defensemen to own in your points-only keeper leagues – July edition!
The 2022 draftees are in. About 100 players were added to the template, and just when I finished… all the RFA qualifying offer news started coming out and I made those adjustments as well.
Click on any player name to be taken to his DobberProspects scouting profile. To see the Top 200 fantasy prospect forwards, click here.
As always, players ranked between +/-5.0 rating points of each other should be considered equal and at that point become a matter of team need (wait time vs. certainty vs. upside) or personal bias.
And don’t forget – pick up the Fantasy Prospects Report here, or grab the FPR and the Fantasy Guide in our Keeper League Fantasy Pack here.
