DMD Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Lions released Kerryon Johnson. Fantasy Starters carrying over from 2020: RB D'Andre Swift TE T.J. Hockenson WR Quintez Cephus Hockenson has 2 years experience. Just one year for Swift and Cephus. New members of the offense: QB Jared Goff RB Jamaal Williams RB Jemar Jefferson RB Rakeem Boyd WR Breshad Perriman WR Tyrell Williams WR Amon-Ra St. Brown (Equanimeous' brother) WR Damon Ratley WR Kalif Raymond TE Darren Fells I still say this is a rebuilding year. I'm sure of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplemonster Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 That offense looks pretty bad to be honest. I think Jamaal Williams is underrated somewhat and Swift is good, but the pieces don't look like they are there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought for sure they were drafting a WR in the 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They let Golladay and Jones go and added very little. Breshard Perriman is decent, but more of a 3-4 WR on a team. Definitely a full rebuild and I could see a worse season results wise.

Had some OK games w/ Jets and could get a TON of garbage-time fantasy points this year. One of his best stats is yards per catch at 16.5 over his career. But his catch rate around 50% isn't great. I see he was on the field a lot for the Jets, unlike his year in CLE where he had 30-50% of snaps most weeks, on the Jets it was usually 90% or above.

Problem is every pass thrown has a target, sometimes that guy has no chance to catch the ball. It is why there are more specific stats like drops, but those are less official, and not recorded on the Pro Football Reference site (my trusted source for stats).

darin3 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 12 minutes ago, League_Champion said: Yeah, ok. Pick a benchmark for over/under on PPR fantasy points and we'll make a bet. I would contend he finishes no worse than WR25 in PPR. Some of the best fantasy producers are WRs on crappy teams since they will likely be playing from behind a lot. There are already reports of Perriman and Goff working together in LA and Goff's abilities line up well with Perriman does route-wise, so I would not be surprised if Perriman ends up as a fantasy WR2. You need to stop being so dismissive of others' opinions. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my opinion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, sorry to be so dismissive of your opinion BUT WR25 please, I would say WR60-70 he has a hand full of good games hes on his third team in what 4 or 5 years in the league. I can't see it not even close . I would bet you in a heartbeat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplemonster Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) That is just a really rough offense. I suppose they will try to feed Hockenson and Swift and run with Jamaal Williams and Swift. And I guess their co-number 1s are Tyrell Williams/Breshad Perriman? Looks like a long year. Edited May 7, 2021 by purplemonster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just drafted Gainwell and have a plethora of running backs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
