SEAHAWKS DEFENSE:

Still elite, still a unit you want to own in fantasy football. The problem I see every year is Seahawk fans who place far too much value on having a great defense. I’ve won leagues before by picking up defenses off the waiver wire every week and playing matchups.

I love the Hawks D, and this year they could be even better than 2015, but if you want to win your league, hold off on drafting them until at least the 10th round.
