Luke Willson Isn't An Option In Week 7

Detroit Lions tight end Luke Willson is the starter in name only. He did not garner a target in Week 5 against the Packers and only has seven targets on the season, which leads all Lions tight ends. He's been able to corral four of those looks for 29 yards, but hasn't found the end […]

TJ Jones Has No Appeal In Week 7

Detroit Lions wide receiver TJ Jones has played just 20 combined snaps in his last two games and has not been targeted once. Jones is an afterthought in the offense with receivers like Golden Tate, Kenny Golladay, and Marvin Jones in the mix. Especially in a tough matchup with the Dolphins, leave the Lions fourth […]

Marvin Jones Is A Risky Play On Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones saved his owners in Week 5 when he hauled in an eight-yard touchdown, his only reception against the Packers. As each game is played, it seems as though Kenny Golladay has supplanted Jones as the big-play threat for the Lions. With just 16 receptions for 231 yards, Jones has […]

Kenny Golladay Has Tough Matchup In Week 7

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay has vaulted himself into the fantasy limelight with a strong start to the season, posting 27 catches for 428 yards and three scores through five games. However, Golladay is welcomed out of the bye week with a likely matchup of Xavien Howard. Despite the tough matchup, the second-year receiver […]

Golden Tate Looks To Continue Solid Season Against Dolphins

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate leads the team in targets (51), receptions (33), and receiving yards (431), while also tying for the team lead with three touchdowns. Tate goes into a Week 7 matchup with the Dolphins on pace to set a career high in receptions and yards. Drawing a matchup with rookie Minkah […]

Theo Riddick Is A Dart Throw In Week 7

Detroit Lions running back Theo Riddick has a chance to make an impact against the Dolphins in Week 7. Riddick is the fourth most targeted player on the Lions with 30 looks. He's hauled in 23 of those for 138 yards. While he hasn't found the end zone yet, the Dolphins have allowed the third […]

LeGarrette Blount Not On The Radar In Week 7

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount scored his first two touchdowns of the season in Week 5. The Lions short-yardage back is as touchdown dependent as it gets as he only has 117 yards to go with his two scores this season. In Week 7, he draws a tough matchup with the Dolphins front seven. […]

Kerryon Johnson Has Flex Appeal Against Dolphins

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson faces off against a tough Miami defense in Week 7. After leaving the Week 5 game against the Packers with an ankle injury, he did not return. Having a bye week to recover, Johnson gets to face a Dolphins defense that allows 118.2 yards per game. He's had almost […]

Matthew Stafford Is A Low-End QB1 in Week 7

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford leaves the bye week and is preparing to face the Dolphins on the road in Week 7. Stafford has been solid but not great thus far; however, he is throwing to one of the best receiving groups in the league. According to Football Outsiders, Miami is ranked fifth against the […]

LeGarrette Blount Scores Twice in Win

Detroit Lions running back LeGarrette Blount found the end zone twice from one yard out in the first quarter Sunday against the Packers. He did absolutely nothing outside of that, finishing with just 22 yards on 12 carries. Blount's role as the short-yardage back doesn't give him much of any fantasy value, but it certainly […]

Kerryon Johnson Impressive Despite Leaving With Injury

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (ankle) did not finish the game in Sunday's win over the Packers. However, his outlook after the game was positive, saying "Yeah, I think I could have played, if needed." Before exiting the game in the second half, Johnson rushed for 70 yards on 12 carries, while also hauling […]

TJ Jones Targetless in Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver TJ Jones wasn't targeted in the win over the Packers. Jones has only been looked at five times this season, pulling in two of them. Unless a major injury happens to the Lions receiving corps, Jones will likely continue to be an afterthought in the offense.

Golden Tate Has Five Catches In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate had an average game in the win against the Packers on Sunday. He hauled in five of seven targets for 52 yards. Tate has now had at least seven targets in every game this season. The 30-year-old slot receiver isn't expected to score every week, but it would have […]

Kenny Golladay Impressive Against Packers

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught four of his nine targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Packers on Sunday. His score was the only points the Lions put up in the second half. Golladay is establishing himself as one of the best young receivers in the NFL, and […]

Marvin Jones Scores In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones made his only reception count in a 31-23 win over the Packers on Sunday. Hauling in an eight-yard touchdown pass just before halftime, it was the only one of four targets that Jones was able to corral. It would have been a disappointing day otherwise for Jones had he […]

Matthew Stafford Average In Win Over Packers

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford finished 14-for-26 for 183 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-23 win over the Packers on Sunday. The Lions jumped out to a commanding 24-0 lead in the first half, before allowing the Packers to inch closer in the second half. Stafford didn't have the biggest day for fantasy purposes, […]

Matt Prater Hopes To Be Busy Against Packers

Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater has nailed his last seven field goal attempts and is perfect on extra points through the first four weeks of the season. This week, the Lions host the Packers in what has the potential to be a high-scoring affair. Prater is an easy target when playing at home, as he […]

Luke Willson Is Off The Radar Against The Packers

Detroit Lions tight end Luke Willson leads the team's tight end group with four receptions on seven targets this year for just 29 yards. He's played the most snaps out of any tight end on the roster but that hasn't led to production, despite the offense being pass heavy. He's shared time with Levine Toilolo, […]

TJ Jones Is Off The Radar In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver TJ Jones has just five targets in 56 snaps this season and he's hauled in two of them for just 10 yards. While there is always the chance he pulls in a prayer for a touchdown, Jones shouldn't be on any rosters unless an injury occurs to any one of Golden […]

Kenny Golladay Carries Some Risk In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay has seen his targets drop in every single game after Week 1. While Golladay caught all four of his targets for 74 yards against the Cowboys last Sunday, he was fourth on the team in targets. This week against Green Bay, Golladay will have another tough matchup with the […]

Marvin Jones Due For A Big Week

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones has seen just six targets in each of the last two games after seeing 17 combined in the first two games of the season. While he's scored twice this year, he hasn't caught more than four passes or had over 69 yards in any game. Jones is averaging 16.4 […]

Golden Tate Looking To Stay Hot In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate is coming off one of the best games of his career in Week 4 when he caught eight passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns. It was the only time in his career where he had over 100 yards and two touchdowns in a game. Tate has been fantastic […]

Matthew Stafford Has Solid Matchup In Week 5

Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is top 10 in the league in completions, yards, and touchdowns. He will look to continue to trend upward against Green Bay at home this Sunday. Vegas expects this game to be one of the highest-scoring games of the weekend, so expect the Lions to continue to air the ball […]

Matt Prater Perfect In Week 4

Detroit Lions kicker Matt Prater made his only field goal attempt (33 yards) and hit all three extra-point attempts in the loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. Prater is perfect in his last seven field goal attempts, after missing two in the season opener. He will be back at home, indoors, next week when the […]

Lions Defense Struggles To Contain The Cowboys

The Detroit Lions defense allowed 414 yards of offense in the last-second loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. Ezekiel Elliott had his way with the Lions defense that was missing Ziggy Ansah and Kerry Hyder Jr., as he rushed for 152 yards. However, the Lions pass rush was effective, forcing three sacks. Detroit regained the […]

Luke Willson Quiet Against Cowboys

Detroit Lions tight end Luke Willson caught one of two targets for six yards in the 26-24 loss to the Cowboys. This marks the second consecutive week that Willson has garnered more than one target; however, his production is very limited when he does corral the pass. A Lions tight end was targeted five times […]

TJ Jones Not Targeted In Week 4

Detroit Lions wide receiver TJ Jones was not targeted once in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. Jones has just two catches on five targets this season and has served a very limited role in the offense. The only way Jones becomes fantasy relevant is if an injury occurs to Golden Tate, Kenny Golladay, or Marvin […]

Marvin Jones Catches Three Passes In Week 4

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones caught three of six targets for 56 yards in Sunday's loss to the Cowboys. Jones had the second most targets on the team and continues to provide a big-play threat, highlighted by a 34-yard reception in the second quarter. Jones has now seen at least six targets in every […]

Kenny Golladay Has Solid Day On Sunday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught all four of his targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Cowboys.

Golden Tate Has Huge Day Against Cowboys

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate caught eight passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns against the Cowboys on Sunday. It was the first time that Tate scored twice in a game since December of 2015. The 30-year-old has been the best receiver in Detroit through four games and is on pace to have one […]
