Sadly, I was disappointed that the Lions didn't draft nor sign anyone significant on the offensive line. This to me is the true hole Stafford or Culpepper for that matter will have to over come. Yes Mathews situation is defiantly one like David Carr's as opposed to Alex Smith.
Guess we will see if young Stafford can take a hit or should I say 1,000 hits. Get this kid some more line please!
Calvin Johnson and the Lions fantasy football strategy for 2009
Calvin Johnson—Johnson's Fantasy value this year I say ignore the fact that his offense and team are a loser at this time. Hey if the guy had 1,300 yards and 12 touchdowns last year he can do that any year. Draft him in the seconnd round of your fantasy draft and sleep sound that night knowing you have a stud.
Running back Kevin Smith—This runner will make a fine No. 3 back for your team in the coming season. Weather he's a start/flex play or just filling in for you he will give you good work most of the year.
Look for Smith in the mid rounds of the draft because most of your fellow counter parts will shy away from a runner on a 0-16 team. To combat that thinking all I'm asking you do is go back and look at Kevin's teams he played. Then see how he preformed in second half of the year.
True this kid is not an explosive game breaker but he is a very steady hard working "cow bell" in the offense.
Tight End Brandon Pettigrew—If you want him on your team draft him at the end and stash him away behind another good tight end.
Lions Quarterbacks—If your desperate go ahead and grab Culpepper late as a backup. Other than that stay away for this season. Even though Calvin Johnson is on the team and will have success, it's hard to trust the quarterback situation from week to week.
