2018 Defense Projections
2018 Fantasy Outlook
If IDP utility perfectly correlated to real-life value, Donald might have been top-ranked among defenders generally, let alone linemen. Donald is a cannonball on the interior, blasting out of his stance at a velocity blockers can't prepare for and at a center of gravity they can't reach. With Ndamukong Suh around, offenses are left with a cruel lose-lose situation – offensive game plans would mean to double-team players like Donald and Suh on nearly every play, but there just isn't a reliable way to do that now. With 11 sacks on just 790 snaps last year, Donald could go wild in 2018. Read Past Outlooks
Breaking records
Donald recorded seven tackles and three sacks during Sunday's victory over Arizona.
ANALYSIS
It was a historic night on multiple fronts for the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year, who is now up to 19.5 sacks on the season. Not only did Donald's second sack of the night vault him past former Vikings defensive tackle Keith Millard (18 sacks) for the all-time record at the position, but his third sack pushed him past Robert Quinn for the Rams' single-season sack record of 19 that Quinn set in 2013. All in all, this was nothing short of a vintage performance from one of the league's very best players that effectively showcased his single-game upside in all IDP formats.

Donald is expected to play nose tackle in Wade Phillips' new 3-4 defense this year, but that's not a concern, as Donald is a unique talent whose skill set should translate to standout production almost anywhere in the front seven. Moreover, Phillips coaches a one-gap scheme that will give Donald the green light for shooting gaps like he always has. If anything, Phillips should be expected to bring out the most in Donald, who's averaged 55 tackles and 9.5 sacks in his already remarkable three-year career. It helps that all of his NFC West opponents ranked top eight for sacks allowed last year.
