LOD01 192 Posted January 19, 2009 Another op who has never heard of Calvin Johnson. With NO QB, Calvin put up only 100 yards less and just as many TD's on the worst NFL team in history. Fitz benefitted from a high powered offense. Calvin also had double and triple coverage and still could not be stopped. It's Calvin Johnson easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuse9 128 Posted January 19, 2009 It's Calvin Johnson easily. What planet are you from? Calvin easily? Calvin is easily better than Andre Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Randy Moss and a few others......easily? He may be as talented as the best in the league, but we have no idea what type of offense will be run in Detroit or anything. We know what we'll get from Fitz, Moss, AJ. I think Calvin is a phenomenal talent, but if I had my choice I'd take Fitz or AJ over him for sure. You say Fitz benefited from a high powered offense....okay and that means?? Yeah, definitly knock him down a notch, especially in fantasy football, because he's in a high powered offense and take the guy who is double/triple covered over him. What? Are you serious? Nobody will deny that Calvin isn't greatness in the making, but to make a statement that he's easily the best is rediculous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joey Gladstone 33 Posted January 19, 2009 I've landed him in the 2nd (12 team) and 3rd (10 team) the last 2 years. He's not going to be around as late in 2009 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enis_44 0 Posted January 20, 2009 Here's the issue. He's gonna go too high now. The game is to find NEXT year's Larry Fitz. Staying ahead of the curve, that's the ticket. So, who are the guys with the talent to put up Fitz type #'s and challenge for that #1 wr spot next year? Off the top of my head: Fitz - duh AJ Calvin Boldin R Moss Colsten - imo Wayne - maybe S Smith - maybe, qb issues I guess I'd rather let someone else pick Fitz a round too early, get value in that round, and come back 12 picks later with one of the other guys.

wiffleball 4,654 Posted January 20, 2009 Huh, who was that superstar WR of the post-season last year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pee-diddy 27 Posted January 20, 2009 Brandon Marshall is a guy worthy of top 8 consideration IMO. Just depends on how the coaching change(s) effect DEN's offense and what happens at RB. But he deserves to be in the conversation as much as guys like Steve Smith and Colston IMO. A bad DEN defense + Cutler + Eddie Royal on the opposite end = top 8 numbers for Marshall (dep. on RB and coaching) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
enis_44 0 Posted January 20, 2009 I get to choose between Calvin, Fitz and Steve Smith. Oh ya, I've had Fitz since '06 in Dynasty. I'm president of his fan club. Just sayin, in redraft, the price is gonna be too high. It's all about value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phurfur 70 Posted January 20, 2009 If Warner retires and Boldin forces a trade then Fitz drops down to the 5-9 range imo.. Fitz is not dependant on Boldin, Breaston would be fine at #2 WR. But if Warner leaves yes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wiffleball 4,654 Posted January 20, 2009 Fitz is not dependant on Boldin, Breaston would be fine at #2 WR. But if Warner leaves yes. I can see this breaking either way. Boldin is WAY Better than Breaston. People have short short memories. So, you'd think he'd draw some coverage. On the other hand, Boldin has almost the same number of TD's as Fitz. I don't see Breast pulling those down. I could definitely see Fitz doing so. So, there's a bit of good and bad in a Boldin-less world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, there's a bit of good and bad in a Boldin-less world. It's the great question of FFB. If you have the WR1, how good do you want the 2nd Wr to be? I'm usually in the camp that the more talent the better. Over the course of the season, it will help all parties to have the best players in the offense.

SUXBNME 1,346 Posted January 21, 2009 Fitz just might be the greatest reciever to ever play the game IMO, but fantasy wise it's still a toss up between him A.J. and Calvin. Also, what would you guys do if you were me in this dynasty situation? Keep Turner and give up a 7th round pick? Keep Andre Johnson and give up a 5th round pick? Keep Calvin and give up a 6th round pick? I'm leaning torwards Turner, but I really don't see him having near as good of a year next year as this year.

The Moz 69 Posted January 21, 2009 If Brady is healthy - R. Moss is #1 , A. Johnson is #2 , Cal Johnson is # 3 If we knew that Boldin would be gone and Warner would start next season and be healthy all season then maybe Fitz is #2 - #1 is Brady cannot play. Edited to add I do think Fitz is likley most talented WR though - If he has to share with Boldin I just couldn't take him #1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geddy11 4 Posted January 23, 2009 1. AJ 2.Fitz 3.Colston 4. Calvin J. If Colston wouldn't have broken his thumb last year, he would have had another 1200-1300 yrd season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Colston wouldn't have broken his thumb last year, he would have had another 1200-1300 yrd season. 1202 are the most yards Colston has had in a year. 2006 - 1038 / 8 in 11 games 2007 - 1202 / 11 in 16 games 2008 - 760 / 5 in 14 games I have owned Colston the last two years and the guy has been very unreliable. No way is he #3 and no way is he ahead of Calvin J. If Warner comes back AJ and Fitz are interchangeable at #1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edited to add I do think Fitz is likley most talented WR though - If he has to share with Boldin I just couldn't take him #1 You don't even have him at #3. The key is Warner, AZ's offense has plenty of stats for 2 WRs. Last year in my PPR the top three WRs were AJ Fitz Boldin I don't think it will matter if Boldin is their or not.

Carl Eller's Dead Liver 0 Posted January 24, 2009 Don't forget about Andre Johnson. I'd have Fitz and Andre co #1's. I like Andre better long term.....Fitz is not going to have Warner around after next year, which will hurt his value. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No way is he #3 and no way is he ahead of Calvin J. If Warner comes back AJ and Fitz are interchangeable at #1. Im not sayin he's #1. He's top 5 easily IMO. After he came back after , i think it was after 5-6weeks, he was very gun-shy after breaking his thumb, you could tell. He was dropping passes and you could see he was scared to get hit. He finally came back into form the last 2-3 weeks of the season, but it was too late. The guy is a stud, bottom line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Moz 69 Posted January 26, 2009 I couldn't take any WR over Calvin Johnson -- a 2nd yr WR who put up 12 scores and 1200 or more yards with a horrible QB and a team that didn't win a game. Imagine if his team improves even a little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

enis_44 0 Posted January 29, 2009 I'm guessing you don't do very well at fantasy football. I agree with you. The broad, no question about it, use of easily is the issue. Let's see, Fitz is what, 24, was the #1 Wr this year and has been an absolute monster since like 2006. Oh, and he's still getting better. I don't care how good Calvin looks, and he looks amazing so far, there is no "easily" when it comes to picking between the two in a dynasty league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOD01 192 Posted January 31, 2009 I'm guessing you don't do very well at fantasy football. I don't even have to guess that you have no clue about fantasy football. There is no doubt that you don't. Me: This year, 2 leagues 2 championships. Sig shows my dynasty team that destroyed the rest of the league. 1st time co-owner in a redraft and we took the title. If you have any doubt how great that team is, just plug it into your league and watch how I destroy every team. As a side note, I predicted how great it would be in the 'a little help' board. Just search for lod01 and you'll see the post. Just to let you know how ###### great I am at FF, I used acquired draft picks to select Greg Jennings, Brandon Marshall, Calvin Johnson and paired them with Andre. Additionally I selected DeAngelo Williams, knowing he was the best RB in that draft (not Addai, not Bush, not Maroney) and Frank Gore over Brown, Benson and Caddy. I took my team from back to back 3-10 season to the title game in 3 years and to the championship in 4 years. I am the greatest mind in FF today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
