IDP Rankings 2026 (Individual Defensive Player)

Updated on Sat, 21 Mar 2026

You’ve landed on our 2026 IDP Rankings, a vital tool in determining where to draft your defensive players.

We start our award-winning rankings with baseline projections for every player. But we go beyond that by including floor and ceiling projections, as well as consensus projections. Each guy’s 3D projection combines with a cross-positional algorithm to deliver his 3D Value.

And that’s how you’ll find the IDP Rankings sorted below. Make sure you check out the tiers to see where the true value breaks arise.
