Fantasy Football Defense Rankings for Week 2

Defenses suffered greatly in Week 1, as this was one of the highest scoring weeks in NFL history. Sixteen teams scored 25 points or more, and only one game failed to reach a 30-point total threshold (and that contest was played in Australia!). Hopefully our fantasy D/STs can assert a bit more effort in Week 2.

Below, Yahoo analysts Justin Boone, Matt Harmon, Scott Pianowski, Joel Smyth and Hayden Winks (whose rankings will come on Thursday) give you their D/ST rankings for fantasy football in Week 2.
