To be honest, I wasn't planning on doing weekly IDP ranks, but after checking out other sites' offerings, I felt it was my duty. Yes I did just use three commas in the opening sentence. Instead of wasting time to revise it, I'll spend more time on these rankings (promise). IDP doesn't get enough love out there, so we're going to try and keep this going for the season. Don't forget that there will be IDP guys on Waiver Wire Scoops every Tuesday.
Follow me on Twitter for plenty of IDP updates throughout the week!
