How will the Detroit Lions do this season?
Asked in: Brandon Pettigrew, Bryant Johnson, Calvin Johnson, Dan Gronkowski, Detroit D/ST, Drew Stanton, Jahvid Best, Kevin Smith, Matthew Stafford, Maurice Morris, Mikel Leshoure, Nate Burleson, Shaun Hill, Stefan Logan, Titus Young, Tony Scheffler
The Detroit Lions are always terrible. There's just something about them that inhibits them from getting better. Not sure what it is, but I don't have a lot of confidence.

Lions and Texans in the playoffs this year?
Asked in: Detroit Lions, Detroit D/ST, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Houston Texans, Houston D/ST, Matt Schaub, Arian Foster, Andre Johnson
I think the Lions will just miss a playoff spot, finishing behind GB in their division and Dallas and New Orleans for a Wild Card spot. I have a feeling the Texans, on the other hand, will win their division this year and make the playoffs.
If Stafford played 16 games, is he a top 10/top 5 qb?
Asked in: Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Detroit Lions, Detroit D/ST
Maybe top 10, definitely not top 5. I think he'd fall between 10-15 after the Schaub/Ryan/Big Ben crew.
Best keeper C.Johnson Or Phillip Rivers
Asked in: Calvin Johnson
Rivers by a mile. CJ is great but RB's have a limited shelf life while Rivers is the man and is here to stay...
Who should be my 2 RB's for week one?
Asked in: Mario Manningham, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Eli Manning, Reggie Bush, Thomas Jones, Brandon Jacobs, Ricky Williams, Todd Heap, Kellen Winslow, Eddie Royal, Chad Henne, Dan Carpenter, Detroit D/ST, Tampa Bay D/ST
Ugh.. You went way too heavy on your WR draft there amigo. RBs win leagues, even in PPR (there are RB's that receive too). Let's see.. Brandon Jacobs for sure, he is feeling good this week, and I like the matchup for him. I am not confident with Reggie Bush, or Ricky Williams.. and Jones? wow. I think Reggie Bush wins by default sir. Go Jacobs and Bush.
In my yahoo league what does the 3 under the waiver block mean for me?
Asked in: Mario Manningham, Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Eli Manning, Reggie Bush, Thomas Jones, Brandon Jacobs, Ricky Williams, Todd Heap, Kellen Winslow, Eddie Royal, Chad Henne, Dan Carpenter, Detroit D/ST, Tampa Bay D/ST
It means you are third in waiver priority. So let's say you put in for a waiver for.. A better RB (judging by your current setup), and 1 other guy puts in a waiver for the same RB, if he is after you in the waiver priority you win when the waivers process (usually Wed at like 2 am PST or something), but if he is ahead of you in the waiver process, he wins the pick. If the waiver goes through, your waiver priority takes a hit and you are usually lowered a few digits. If it doesn't go through, you keep the same number or move up (if someone ahead of you uses a waiver pick). Waivers are unlimited, but if everyone is wanting the same pick, then it's in your best interests to keep your number at 3 or higher.
Are the Detroit Lions for real?
Asked in: Detroit Lions, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Jahvid Best
I think so. They won't beat the Packers but they could make a wild card run.
WR3 Start of the Week: Lance Moore or Nate Burleson?
Asked in: Lance Moore, Nate Burleson, New Orleans Saints, Minnesota D/ST, Drew Brees, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Devery Henderson, Robert Meachem
Stafford loves Burleson, and Brees loves everybody. I think Nate gives you the better shot.
trade Calvin Johnson and Ricky Williams for R Mendenhall and Dwayne Bowe?
Asked in: Calvin Johnson, Rashard Mendenhall, Dwayne Bowe, Brandon Gibson, Larry Fitzgerald, Mario Manningham, Chad Henne, Eli Manning, Brandon Jacobs, Reggie Bush, LaRod Stephens-Howling, Todd Heap, Kellen Winslow
What's your RB situation? Megatron is looking like one of the best receivers out there. Both Mendy and Bowe are buy lows now, Mendy more then Bowe.
Trading schaub and d jax for Calvin Johnson....
Asked in: Matt Schaub, DeSean Jackson, Calvin Johnson
I think that's a good team, Jeff. The Megatron deal makes sense, but I may consider trading Bradshaw instead of DJax if I can.
Keeper League..Should I trade Miles Austin, Steve Johnson, and Ryan Mathews for Matt Hasselbeck, Calvin Johnson, and MJD?
Asked in: Miles Austin, Steve Johnson, Ryan Mathews, Calvin Johnson, Tony Romo, Steven Jackson
Depends who else you got on your roster. The main keeper candidates are Mathews and Calvin, I think it's a solid deal for you as long as you have other WR that are able to fill in the second slot
Who wins tonight: Lions or Bears?
Asked in: Detroit Lions, Chicago Bears, Matt Forte, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Jay Cutler
trading
Asked in: Chris Johnson, Calvin Johnson
That's a classic sell low and buy high. That being said, Calvin is a BEAST.
trade
Asked in: Calvin Johnson, Chris Johnson, Deion Branch
Who has had the most impressive season so far?
Asked in: Calvin Johnson, Wes Welker, Sebastian Janikowski, Matthew Stafford, Jahvid Best
I'd say Fred Jackson. Don't think anyone had him pegged to be the top running back at this point.
Should I trade CJ and Benson for Nicks and Mathews?
Asked in: Calvin Johnson
Its tough to give up CJ but I think the tandom of Nicks and Mathews is better and the keep part for Mathews is really attractive for next year. FYI you should be able to get an even better RB than Mathews for CJ.
I've got McFadden and D Jackson for Megatron and Bradshaw (or Mendenhall).
Asked in: Darren McFadden, DeSean Jackson, Calvin Johnson, Ahmad Bradshaw, Rashard Mendenhall
You're giving up Megatron and Bradshaw? Who else do you have at WR? Is it PPR? Who else is at RB?
V-Jax for Dez Bryant?
Asked in: Vincent Jackson, Roddy White, James Starks, Earnest Graham, Arian Foster, Beanie Wells, Calvin Johnson, Dez Bryant
Yeah, VJax is worth me for me as well. I may try to trade Graham while his stock is hot.
Dilemma? or Overnight success? or Even Trade?
Asked in: Calvin Johnson, Ray Rice
what other WR and RB do you have? I have Megatron in both my leagues I am so high on him. So far so good. But, Rice gets a lot of touches... meaning more opportunities for points
stevie johnson and ryan mathews for calvin johnson?
Asked in: Steve Johnson, Ryan Mathews, Calvin Johnson
Depends who you got on your roster. If you have the depth, take Megatron.
Should I do this trade?
Asked in: Lesean McCoy, Fred Jackson, Steve Smith (CAR), Greg Jennings, Wes Welker, Marques Colston, Calvin Johnson, DeMarco Murray, Frank Gore, Arian Foster
So this is a 2-person league? How did you get all these guys? I don't know why you are giving up so much for Shady when Fred Jackson has been so solid. I would rather keep Jennings and play him instead of unpredicatable Colston. Plus I am worried that McCoy's success could wane if the Eagle's passing game suffers with Vick and Maclin injured, and defenses focus on the run more. Vick's mobility threat seems to open holes for McCoy.I would ask for more in the trade.
How would you play my lineup?
