Top 50 Fantasy Prospect Defensemen – September 2018
Dobber
2018-09-13
Here are the Top 200 prospect forwards to own in your points-only keeper leagues…
This month's changes are based on the values that changed on the regular rankings template – one of the variables involved in the final rating below is the keeper value on the main list. It shuffled players up and down as you see below.
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
Prospect Defensemen list is forthcoming (check in tomorrow). You can check out all our monthly lists (Keeper, Goalie, Prospect, Roto) via the "Rankings" link in the main menu, or click here…(and bookmark that section because you'll be referring to it often – it's pretty awesome)
