Slaton... yes. Det is slowly turning around and CJ is a freaking stud
got megatron straight up for burleson. redraft league.
I own Megatron in two leagues and just traded Bowe straight up for him in another. So basically, my 3 money leagues I'm riding Calvin as my Wr 1A we'll all it another he's my WR2 in the 3rd.Detroit has an average to good WR matchup the rest of the way. Their week 15 and 16 schedule is very good. But the bottom line is Megatron is a stud. Even studs have to be used the proper way though. Look at Randy Moss in Oakland, he had very few studly games there and everyone thought he wasn't the same guy as he was in Minny, we all see now that it's just not the case.Calvin is still a stud, despite this poor season. Due to injury to his QB, himself and his QB being a rookie, things haven't played out like we've wanted as CJ owners. However, living in Detroit I've heard a lot of talk this past week on the local sports stations and it's basically centered around, why isn't Calvin getting the ball. I mean, if you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose but you at least going out swinging. For the Lions, that means you need to be trying to get the ball in CJ's hands at all cost.I've heard how they double him, play the safety this way and that way.......I don't care. You counter that by giving him the ball on slants, reverses, throw it up every once in awhile deep to let him make a play. The guy is a freak, I'm absolutely convinced. You give this guy as many chances to make plays as you possibly can.I'm riding Calvin and it's starting today. I don't care about the Minny defense, they can get passed on and Calvin will have a solid game today. I wasn't at practices all week for the Lions, but you can't tell me that any sane person after last week wouldn't be working all week on trying to find ways to get Calvin the ball and work on their timing that was off last week due to both guys not being healthy for about a month.Calvin's going to score today, he's going to have a solid end to the season and those of us who believe in him will reap the benefits. I'm right in the thick of the playoff races in all 3 leagues so for me, believing in Calvin will be costly one way or the other. If there are no more injury setbacks, I just can't see this guy not having some big games down the stretch, he's that good. If it doesn't happen, then at least I lose and there's nobody to blame but myself. Calvin's a freak, I'm in and it starts today.
He looked real good today and his schedule the rest of the way is very good. Those of us who drafted Megatron may not get the full value we expected but if he stays healthy he could be a major impact player the rest of the way.
