Question 1

Is Ezri Konsa a reliable DEFCON asset in Fantasy Premier League?

Accepted Answer

The DEFCON return is real but modest. earned the +2pt DEFCON bonus in 1 of 3 appearances this season. Ezri Konsa averages 8.95 defensive contribution actions per 90 minutes across 191 minutes played (19 total actions this season). That is a moderate workload rather than an elite one - DEFCON can land, but it should be treated as a bonus rather than a bankable weekly return. The sample is still small at 191 minutes, so treat the rate as a signal rather than a settled read. The rate needs to firm up before this player deserves priority on DEFCON grounds alone.

Question 2

How does Konsa rank among Fantasy Premier League defenders for DEFCON?

Accepted Answer

Konsa ranks 32 of 109 eligible defenders for DEFCON per 90 - the 72th percentile at their position. That places them below the level where DEFCON should be a leading reason to own them. Attacking output, price, and fixtures need to carry more of the weight in the buying case.

Question 3

What do Konsa's raw defensive numbers look like this Fantasy Premier League season?

Accepted Answer

Konsa has racked up 19 combined clearances, blocks, interceptions and tackles across 191 minutes. That works out to 9.0 defensive actions per 90 minutes on average. The 10-plus threshold has been cleared in 1 of 3 appearances, converting to the +2pt DEFCON bonus each time. 191 minutes is a small sample - the raw figures are directional rather than definitive.

Question 4

Should I sign Ezri Konsa for Gameweek 6 on DEFCON grounds?

Accepted Answer

Ezri Konsa's defensive workload of 8.95 actions per 90 is moderate rather than elite. The Gameweek 6 fixture is at home to Leeds, an FDR 2 matchup. A transfer on defensive contributions alone is hard to justify at this profile - lean on the fixture, price, or attacking output as the primary case and treat DEFCON as an occasional bonus.
